I remember getting intermittent errors like this, with a product
authored in director7 - but that had no embedded fonts. It did however
use an old version of the printomatic lite xtra - my research led to it
being the fault of poorly written printer drivers installed on the
client PCs.

What version of director are you using? what operating system is your
development machine (the one on which you are creating the projector)?
Is this error prevalent on multiple operating systems?

The simple fact is you have to test extensively early on and on all
platform/operating system variants you are going to support. which is
why for alot of projects, half the cost is testing.

If you can detail to us the exact error message someone might have come
across a work-around...
