Is anyone else _pissed off_ that v3.0.1 can't properly print without intervention from the user (i.e. manually downloading the fonts to the printer). This has serious ramifications in my ability to use Mathematica in the manner I have for years. Consider the following cases: 1) I create a document that includes epsf figures generated in Mathematica. No one but I can print it, since they don't have the fonts. The figures can not be shared with anyone else for the same reason. 2) I create a PDF file from a document that contains Mathematica figures. I must include the Mathematica fonts greatly increasing the size of the file. 3) Every time I print I have to worry that the printer has been reset, losing the fonts. Therefore I must download the fonts frequently. Is there any way out of this quagmire? For example, can I force Mathematica to only use Times fonts for plot labels? -Jonathan.
