Thanks very much for your suggestions. I fixed it, a day and a half later, after installing the fonts through Font Book, not directly into the System 9 Fonts folder (which I thought I'd read somewhere was the same thing, but maybe not).

Thanks.

I'm using FM 6.5, Mac, in Classic. I was printing to a Laserwriter  Select

I've just switched to a Lexmark E120n laser printer. Now it prints Helvetica
bold oblique and Helvetica oblique with an additional slant. (I  have not
checked if this is also happening with other fonts.)

I've reinstalled the fonts, then installed a different version (from a
colleague) of the fonts into the System 9 Fonts folder, and  restarted FM,
with no change.

This also happened, before I switched the printers (machines), when I made
pdfs from the FM files, either using a.) Save as, then Distiller,  or b.)
Print to file, then Distiller.

It's probably something obvious, but I don't get it. Any ideas?

What font format are you using?

Does the issue also occur with other Mac OS 9 apps?

I always delete the TrueType Times, Helvetica, Symbol, etc., included with Mac OS 9 and replace with PostScript Type 1 versions.

BTW, there's a bunch of Mac FrameMaker users on the FrameMaker for Mac OS X discussion group at:
