Re: visio fonts don't show in FM
Orly, This has been a problem for many people for many years. The consensus seems to be that the problem is a combination of Microsoft OLE problems and, possibly, the way FM handles OLE. The most popular solutions are saving from Visio as one of the graphic formats I mentioned so that you can avoid OLE.

Distiller 8 leaving behind tps and tpdf
Hello, I upgraded to Distiller 8 (via Acrobat Standard 8), and now I always get the leftover TPS files, and sometimes TPDF files, after saving Frame 7.2 files as PDF. I was able to figure out how to turn off the log files in Distiller, but not TPS. And this is the first time I've encountered TPDF. Any ideas on how to clean up those files automatically?

Distiller 8 leaving behind tps and tpdf
I noticed this too, although it has obviously been occurring for a while for me too, since I upgraded it to Acrobat Pro 8 a few months ago. I just had not focused on it due to lack of time. So, please let me/us know what you hear back on this. Thanks!
