Some really hard to solve stuff here:

Printing on my HP690C is okay so far. But when it comes to Type1-Fonts
in Best mode it prints garbage:
The parts of the page that are _monochrome_ Type1-Fonts and not next to
coloured images (CMYed by ColorSmart) are rendered as overlapping
internal characters that have nothing to do with what is on the page.
Truetypes are fine, converting text to 600dpi monochrome bitmaps works,
but is a clumsy workaround. Converting Type1-fonts to Truetype is also
unconvenient and fails with MultipleMaster fonts, which I tend to use a
lot.

HP did not have an answer (wrote to their "Customer Satisfaction Team"
several weeks ago - I am not satisfied at all, no answer yet ;), Adobe
did not have an answer either. My phone bill was huge, to no avail.

Setup: Win95 OSR2, Adobe Type Manager 4.0 Deluxe, Original Adobe Fonts,
HP690C Driver 9.02, consistent error from apps including CorelXara,
Wordpad, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Adobe Pagemaker 6.5, StarOffice 4.0.

Any comments, ideas? I really need those Adobe fonts in my desktop work.
