    printing to pdf

    I am using the printDocument class to print. All is fine, unless I
    select the Acrobat 4.0 writer as the printer. If I do, characters are
    replaced - for example "B" becomes "%" and "E" becomes "%."

    I am running vb.net code.

    The writer works fine with other windows apps (Word, PPT, etc.)

    The text is being generated with a graphics.drawst ring(...) method
    call.

    thanks

      Ken,
      .NET normally emits Unicode strings to the printer which can cause
      problems. You may have to update your version of Acrobat to one that
      supports this.
      I currently use activePDF to write PDF files and don't have any problems
      there. I don't have a current version of Acrobat to test with though.
