I've been doing some searching on Adobe's site trying to find out what's
going on with the fonts in .PDF format. The i in Linux was done in
Garamond Book Condensed, and looks scripted when in italics. I had
*thought* that PDF was supposed to reproduce fonts regardless of which ones
were installed on the viewer's system, but that's not happening. Rumour
has it some 'Acrobat Safe' fonts exist, but I'll have to check.

I'm hoping to have 'final version' hard copies ready for photocopying by
the end of the day, then they'll be going to Eric who is looking after the
photocopying.
