Roger,

Because you are running Windows XP, I do not think you need to have Adobe Type Manager; it was created when Windows did not have the ability to use PostScript fonts.

Also, I think you should avoid using Save as PDF. The better way to make a PDF is to print the document or book with Adobe PDF as the printer. But I doubt that NOT doing this is the source of your problem.

In any event, you can get round the error of not being able to open documents with missing fonts by FIRST opening all the documents in the book. At each open, Frame will complain about the missing fonts but allow you to open the file anyway. THEN print the book to Adobe PDF. Because the files are already open, Frame will print them anyway. Of course, the missing font is still missing but Acrobat will be able to create something close to it.
