Problems printing out PDF files

[Joel Hammer]

My daughter is printing out pdf applications for grad school. We
get various errors with acroread, but basically some documents don't
print. Here is one type of error. If I print the document to a file,
here is what I get with gv.

Error: /invalidfont in -dict-

However, if I use pdf2ps to convert the pdf file to postscript, I get
valid postscript which I can print with gv.

I guess the problem is acroread is using a font I don't have to print
these files even though they display properly in X.  So, my questions:

     What is the difference between acroread and gs (-sDEVICE=pswrite) in font
     handling during printing?

     Is there someway to make acroread use the same fonts that
     gs does?


BTW, I have those Bitstream delux fonts installed. 

Thanks,

Joel
