Jen, Thanks for the correction. I've never used the full Acrobat package, but the claims of functionality that Adobe makes for it suggests there's substantial "content" info, not just "image" info.
As for printing, I saved the document to disk, opened it in Acrobat reader, and printed from the "File" menu of the reader. No problems. Cheers!
