Is there an option in Preferences in acrobat 7 that can solve this ongoing 
problem?  I write a WORD file to a PDF file using Adobe PDF 7.0.  I then 
open the file in Acrobat 7 because I want to edit the text.  I use 
TouchUp, but if I try to do anything, it tells me I cannot because "the 
selection has no availbale system font."  Under Document Properties > 
Fonts it includes TimesNewRomanMS.  (In fact, it lists it twice.)  It 
works okay with the same file using Acrobat 5 on my 10.3.9 system.

Thanks in advance.
