After I installed Adobe's Type 1 fonts, I can no longer print to a PDF from my FrameMaker 5.5, and Distiller turns my images from color to black and white. The sequence, and errors, are as follows:

This version of Acrobat PDFWriter does not support printing PostScript Type
1 fonts, which are used in this document. You may wish to use Acrobat
Distiller.
When I used distiller before I got all the following errors. I can now use
Distiller however, all the images are black and white now. The following
are the errors I got with distiller. At this point, I'm going to delete my
PS printer and reinstall it but, after that.... I'm totally lost.

I printed to a file using the Generic PostScript Printer driver so I could
use the distiller. When I do this, and open/save with Distiller, I get the
following error:

Remove adobe from the add/remove programs, then go to your temp files and remove all folders connected to adobe. There will be 3 or 4 of them in the windows directory. Look through them you will find reader in some of them. Then reinstall adobe and try a second time. If that dont work the next step is to edit the registry but dont do it if you dont know how. Read the FAQS from MS first. And still dont try it if you dont want to reinstall your O/S.
