The CMRs *are* embedded as subsets, which seems to be misinterpreted by your version of the Reader. The most important variable in any problem with the Reader is (as always) the version number of the Reader itself. Make sure you have the latest reader from Adobe's ftp site. Besides that, you are strongly advised to take the Context files from the NTG web server http://www.ntg.nl/context/ since the CTAN mirror is not always up-to-date. Third point that may be of interest: if you want to tell the Reader to use platform fonts, chances are pretty high that they have to be PFA format instead of PFB format. So you will probably have to run pfbtopfa or t1ascii on the files first. Greetings and good luck, Taco
