Claudio, 

Thanks for the response.  

To answer your question - yes, I did run searches. I don't believe this is a Fonts only problem since the error message doesn't occur unless Forms have been added to the PDF, unless the PDF is launched from Reader on a CD, and it doesn't happen with all users (and never to Macs).  

As you know, Forms (in Acrobat 4.05) only use the Basic fonts (Times, Courier, Helvetica, Zapfs) which should be no problem at all for Reader to find. Believe me, I've conducted a day's worth of tests rebuilding PDFs with and without Forms, with and without different embedding strategies (ever use Pitstop?), and burning a dozen CDs.  

Again, thanks for the comment. Dale
