KNOWN PROBLEMS
================
Adobe PSPrinter 2.1.1 Driver -- You may experience problems when
printing from Acrobat Reader 2.0 when using the Adobe PSPrinter
2.1.1 printer driver.  The problems occur in printing certain
documents that use TrueType fonts or extended characters, such as
typographic quote marks. A PSPrinter 2.1.2 update that fixes both of
these problems should be available early November 1994.  The
PSPrinter 2.1.2 update upgrades an installed version of PSPrinter
