As Adrian says, TT fonts can be used with no problems in PDFs and pose no problems these days in a PDF or PostScript workflow. I would also suggest looking at OpenType fonts, but sadly the coolest features of OT fonts are not supported by FrameMaker. Why do you want to use a serif font for headings and a sans serif font for text? Just because you see the manuals used more on the web? Presumably your manuals do get printed out or are you sure they're always consulted on screen? PS. Adrian, what do you mean by Acrobat 4 not embedding TT fonts that don't appear in the PostScript stream?
