Acrobat 9 Frustrations...

Whatever problem you are experiencing has nothing to do with Windows 7 or Acrobat 9, but 
probably relates to problems with FrameMaker 8.

For the record, the "hotfix" is for Windows XP and Vista only. Windows 7 already is fixed for
the issues for which the hotfix applied. Furthermore, the issue was NOT the PostScript driver,
but rather, the internal GDI graphics subsystem in Windows that had some problems associated
with font handling and caching.

Unfortunately, I do not know exactly what the problem was with FrameMaker 8, but there
were any number of issues associated with printing and PDF production from FrameMaker 8.
