(http://www.microtype.com/FM_bugs.html) people have reported issues
with FM7.x and Save As PDF when using Win98, or tagged PDF, or custom

We seem to be fine with it, but we're not using any of the above. ;-)

I got a call today from a recruiter and he wanted to know what a media
technical writer is. I am not sure whether it was a test of my knowledge or
whether he was looking for information himself.

This is rather off-topic:
You're not working for Oracle by any chance, are you?
