And how! IN 2005, the State of New Jersey put up tax
forms and instructions on its Website that were PDFs.
One small problem: the idiots who created them forgot
to embed the fonts (and it was done with, IIRC, Adobe
version 3 or 4). So they displayed fine on the screen
under Acrobat Reader 6, but when one tried to print
them to a non-Postscript printer, one got nothing but
zeros. I printed to a PS driver to a file, then printed
that to my Epson inkjet with Ghostscript. Proper
printouts with everything handsome about them.
