Hello, 

I'm having a problem with Framemaker 7.0 and the symbol font used in equations.  I'm very new to Framemaker so I thought I would post here to see if someone knows of a solution. 

The problem is that when I went to export my file to .pdf, using "Save as PDF", it replaced all the minus signs (-) in my equations with angle signs (like a slanted <).  I then tried printing to the distiller, and when I changed the printer to Acrobat Distiller it said "The Font Information for your system has changed.  The change may affect the format and output of your document(s)."  And sure it enough, it made the same substitution. 

So I uninstalled FM, and the acrobat distiller and reader and type manager, and deleted all the references to everything Adobe.  Reinstalled FM and tried again and it was fine.  Then I downloaded and installed the latest version of the Acrobat Viewer (5.05) from Adobe's website to check the file.  Looked fine.  But curious as to what the problem was, I tried exporting as PDF again after installing the acrobat reader.  Suddenly the problem is back, all my minus signs are turned into angle signs.  

So the Acrobat Reader has somehow changed the system font information in regards to the symbol font in such a way that minus signs appear as angle signs.  Tried a new document and new equation and the problem remains. 

The operating system is Windows 2000 SP2.  If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this I'd greatly appreciate it.  It's pretty annoying not being able to make .pdf files if I have the Reader installed. 

Thanks in advance, 
Chad
