LaserWriter: Font Substitution Printing Problem



I have suddenly begun experiencing printing problems on my LaserWriter.
When I try to print with Adobe fonts, the system responds that it is
"substituting a bit mapped version, as the printer font can't be found".
The LaserWriter then prints using the Courier font.

This problem happened after I did some work on my System file. I was
having a font ID conflict, so I removed all but the required fonts then
reinstalled the fonts one-at-a-time.

Of course, all my printer fonts are in a Printer Folder.

This sounds like your PostScript fonts are not downloading. Are your fonts
in the System Folder or in a folder in the System Folder? Put them at the
first level of your System Folder; don't embed them in another sub-folder.

Also, be sure font substitution is off in your Page Setup dialog box.
