FYI (minor concern):
If anyone tries to PRINT Jed’s PDF in this referenced link and has an old PS
Printer,
Page 7 might give you an “invalidfont” problem. This is mainly due to an
issue with older PS Interpreters (Level 3, but circa 2002ish). Instead of
placing
a link here to a modified version of the PDF, I would be happy to E-Mail Jed
the PDF
for distribution so that he may keep track of how widespread this issue might
be.
I get around the problem by isolating Page 7, creating PS Level 2 Code, then
distilling the PS for the page back to a PDF. I then recreate a modified PDF
by replacing Page 7. This results in a slightly larger PDF (141 KB). There
are many other ways to work around the issue, but I find that this is the best
way to do it.
... There are very few practical ways to avoid the issue at the creation level,
short of avoiding special fonts and changing the “look” of the document, but
I would be happy to elaborate further on the problem if anyone is interested.
