Re: Formatting captions with figure/table number



The problem is effectively gone with Acrobat 5.0.5 and Acrobat Reader 5.0.5.
Cause of the problem is FrameMaker (all versions) not filtering out non-printable
characters generating PDFMark for the bookmarks in the output PostScript stream.
Acrobat 5 began use of a Windows system font for display of bookmarks for which
non-printable characters yield the .notdef character (the "box"). Acrobat and
Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 put its own filter in for common, non-printable characters.

Get the 5.0.5 update and the problem should be gone.
