Has anyone else noticed problems with the new laserwriter stuff in 6.0.2? If
you turn on "unlimited downloadable fonts" it will occasionally botch out a
font change and print some text out in Courier. It's not cleanly
reproducible, but I see it fairly consistently.

Also, while they do document that printing with that option turned on will
be slower, I find the speed loss to be somewhere between painful and
unacceptable. A page with four fonts (garamond, garamond bold, and Univers
in both 45 and 65) will print out in a couple of minutes normally -- last
night, turning on the option, it took 20. ugh!

Any suggestions on how to optimize pages for printing in the new regime? My
guess (untried) is to download the common fonts and lock them in memory,
which will force MORE swapping for the lesser faces. Anyone got a better
feel for this stuff?
