I have a FM file which contains several referenced .eps files.

The words in the graphics display quite normally in the FM file, however, some of the letters disappear in the converted PDF file. They are not missing as cropped, but missing here and there.

Could anyone give me a hint?

Thanks in advance!

Alice

FrameMaker does not display the EPS data, but only the bitmap preview present in the EPS file.

You can start troubleshooting by determining that the EPS files you are using are valid and fully functional (and do not reference fonts which you don't have).
This can be doen by distilling the EPS files directly. In Distiller, select File > Open; choose "File of type: EPS" or change the file name to *.eps.

Do you mean converting the eps file to PDF file first, then importing the output PDF file into the FM file?

No. He means convert the eps to pdf. Open the pdf in Reader or Acrobat. 
Look at the pdf file to try to determine if the text is properly 
represented in the pdf file. You can look at the font embedding 
information to see if the font is embedded in the new pdf file. If the 
font isn't embedded into the pdf file, then you need to either get the 
font or ask the producer of the pdf file to embed the font into the pdf 
file.
