Jean, 

I thought I explained to you that you did NOT have to limit your use of fonts if you used a font management program? Check out Adobe's ATM LIte. Just like Reader, it's FREE. 

I also sent you to an Adobe Knowledgebase document that explains how to troubleshoot your fonts.  Didn't that help in ascertaining if you had any damaged fonts, which could very well be the cause of the problem? ACrobat and Reader 5.0 are much more adept at finding problems than 4.x was. 

There is no reason you have to be using Reader 4.0 to be able to read PDF files.  Millions of people are using Reader 5.0.5 without any problems.  They just don't all come here to brag about it! 

But, if you are happy using Reader 4.0, I guess I will refrain from shooting you just yet. 

BTW, you didn't have to go through all those gyrations to get Reader 4.0.  It is available on the Adobe FTP site, just like it says in the FAQs.
