Allen,

There is no known problem with any known combination of FrameMaker 6,
Acrobat 5.0x, and Courier New. I will assume that you are running under
some version of Windows, correct?

When you see those little squares, they represent the "notdef" character,
i.e., the character that displays or prints whenever you access a character
position for which there is no character in the font itself.

Some questions?

(1) What font is actually being used in the resultant PDF file?

(2) Are you embedding fonts?

(3) What is the "order" of the directories that you have setup for the
Distiller to search for fonts?

(4) What version of Windows and what driver do you have installed?

(5) What version of ATM do you have installed, if any?

        - Dov

PS: Despite urban legend, there is no reason why you should have any
problems with TrueType fonts. Well-produced TrueType fonts from reliable
font foundries are just as reliable and as high quality as the equivalent
Type 1 fonts, both for casual and professional usage!

Works just fine in Frame 6, but when distilled with Acrobat 5.05 the spaces come out as little rectangles in the PDF.  I didn't use to have this problem and I think it started when I went from 5 to 5.05.
