query: Acrobat 4 vs. Frame printing or PS fonts?

["Snavely, Deborah" <dsnavely@xxxxxxxx>]

Folks,

I'm running Frame 5.5.3 on Win95. I installed a eval copy 
of Acrobat 4.0, later discovered that my previously perfect PostScript fonts
were exhibiting classic TT/PS printing errors (bad kerning, missing
punctuation, extra spaces within words, non-breaking spaces that shift to
the wrong side of the preceding character, etc.). So I uninstalled Acrobat 4
and then FrameMaker reported that the module "esfmdde.dll" was missing (it
didn't keep me from working but...). 

OK, I've reinstalled FrameMaker 5.5.3 and Acrobat 3.01 from the CD-ROM. I've
deleted and reinstalled local fonts from server copies. I've gone into ATM
and removed all fonts and re-added them from the fresh copies (which DID get
me a message from Frame that all my fonts had changed, and I lived in
glorious hope for five minutes...). And I've cold-booted both the Windoze
box and the network printer. 

I'm still getting junk output (from a previously cooperative HP 5si hooked
up across an NT network that I can't muck with). Should I start
re-installing printer drivers? Any OTHER suggestions? (Please reply directly
by email; I get the digest and my digests have been pretty sporadic of
late.)

Adobe, this is a very bad sign.
