Danke. I got an error: File 'times.sty' not found. So, I went to
ctan.org and got the file. Where does it go? I tried
/usr/share/tex/latex/base/, but that didn't work. I'm afraid I don't
know enough about LaTeX to go

as a related question, where should .sty files go in geneeral?
grep HOMETEXMF /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf
then create that directory, and ./tex/latex/whatever underneath. make
your own hierarchy, however you like it. lastly, run

Not sure that's the only cause. Documents created by LaTeX and
converted to PDF have the same problem. They look great in gv and xpdf,
and look like crap in Acrobat (in Win). The PDF docs print nicely from
either platform.

Hello,
When I generate pdf's and view them in acroread (5.0.5) the fonts are
very fuzzy. For example... I create a file in OpenOffice using the
Arial font which is anti-aliased. I then print it to a postscript file.
If I view it through gv, it looks just as fuzzy at first, but then I

What version of ghostscript are you using? Could you put up a small
sample some where?
It sounds as if the fonts are getting converted to type 3 fonts,
which acroread doesn't display very well.

True, but the problem with (naively created) TeX documents is that
dvips traditionally puts bitmapped fonts into its ps files (as PS Type
3 fonts).

That's not the problem. You can turn on all the smoothing you want,
and acroread will not handle type 3 fonts well.
