Re: Pdfing files

[Dov Isaacs <isaacs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Most likely, your problem is that your EPS files reference TrueType Arial but
don't have it embedded. I suspect that you have Acrobat 4.0x. With versions
of Distiller prior to 5.0, TrueType fonts had to appear in the PostScript
stream itself (as Type 42 fonts); Distiller could not and did not embed them
for you if they weren't already in the PostScript.
