Curiouser indeed! If I use Adobe Reader to create a postcript file (under the PDF menu when printing), the "boxes" show up when the resulting .ps file is Previewed; but the characters show up correctly if that same file is imported to Adobe Photoshop Elements. It makes no difference how I've does Page Setup: I've been using "any printer" to keep the HP influence out until the last minute.

And it gets weirder: if I Preview the PDF document, then create the postscript file, Preview sees the characters just fine, but Photoshop Elements doesn't show ANY characters at all, even the ones inside the flowchart elements!

Bizarre indeed.
