- The behaviour reported is indeed curious. I am afraid I can't answer the
- questions about NBPI= etc; but I have a supplementary question of my own.
- I often use Bitstream Garamond fonts. In my case the program downloads
- only when necessary, with one exception: it always downloads the 30 pt
- Roman Garamond font, even when this font is not used anywhere in the
- document, and it downloads it first. This is unaccountable, and somewhat
- annoying, since the file is quite large and takes an appreciable time to
- download; it also eats up a good chunk of printer memory.
