One other thing you may look at is using the uh, vetern version of
Distiller....
I'd be surprised if FM * wasn't shipping with Distiller 8, and you
just didn't install it. But it's likely to make a big difference.
Assuming you need all the features of Acrobat 6, it's probably time to
upgrade to the current version.
