Hi,
I have a problem with Reader 9.1
When I print a pdf document from it, the page is filled with 'gobbledy-gook' characters, but in the correct positions. (ie. the lines are in the correct place and roughly the right length). The characters are the same every time, but NOT in ASCII, they are things like copyright symbol, fractions, upside down question marks, foreign accented chars etc.
The pictures on the page print correctly.
I have tried printing the pdf from ghostscript and it's fine, so therefore I can rule out the printer and the document. I also cannot print a pdf file correctly from IE or Firefox.

Can Anyone help ?

Regards,
