I've tried the repair strategy as well, but it hasn't solved the problem for me either (I tried it again last night just to be sure). Today I opened a PDF and Acrobat Reader said it couldn't find or create ArialBlack. Pretty basic font. The mystery (or perhaps the clue for anyone who really knows how AR works) is that a complete uninstall/reinstall doesn't help. Suggests that maybe something in the OS that it looks for is corrupt. Does anyone know what DLLs or other system libraries it uses? When I create my own PDFs using a CutePDF printer driver, if I choose "Download as soft fonts" from the Truetype options (as opposed to the default "Substitute Device Fonts"), I can read the result with no problem. But the files are much bigger and, of course, PDFs that other people or commercial companies produce aren't written that way. Thanks. Karl
