My problem is as follows: 

I�m trying to print Greek text from my computer which has a swedish OS(WinNT). Im using a font called Arial Greek MT, according to Adobe Type manager the font works fine, but I�ve also tried to reinstall it without any change to the outcome. No matter what program I use when i print the text (i�ve tried Pagemaker 6.5 and word 2000)there is no text at all on the print out, but the images or text in a different font comes out right. If i print to file and convert it to PDF  (with destiller), there is the same problem in the PDF. So i belive it�s not printer hardware problem. I�ve tried to change to different font inclusion options in the printer setup but without effect. I�ve also tried to change to diffferent PPDs in Pagemaker without effect! There is also a problem when we try to print defferent east-european texts. Here the text shows, but some especialy the non-standard caracters) gets mixed upp. I.e. when there should be a "�" there could be a "�" instead... This only shows on the print out (and on print -> PDF) and not on screen.   

I would be extreamly greatfull for any help what so ever on this! I�ve tried to search this forum and web for som answers but havn�t come up with anything useful.
