Thanks Rebecca, but neither method fixed the problem.
To clarify a little more (after comparing both an original Frame page
with its PDF page at 400% on twin 19" monitors):
@ All fonts appear to be identical, although those in the PDF *may* be
smaller.
@ The number of characters per line is different -- the PDF seems to
have about 10% more characters per line. (Note that this is definitely
*not* caused by margins or the entire page being printed 10% smaller --
my first thought).
Any ideas, anyone?

Umm. This sounds like the fonts are embedding. The "subset" just means
that only the characters that the PDFs actually use are embedded. Not a
problem unless you want to add text to the PDF itself.
There's a known bug that sometimes causes text to drop out of PDFs for
no apparent reason. The solution is to drop the Distiller or Adobe PDF
driver's Graphic > Print Quality setting dpi. Drop it to 300dpi first,
then if that fixes the problem put it up to 600.
