[OS X TeX] zapf dingbats

[David Arnold]

All,

Turns out this file causes the same problem.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dvips]{hyperref}
%\usepackage{pifont}
\begin{document}
\begin{Form}
Hello! %\ding{36}
\end{Form}
\end{document}  

When I drop the .ps file on Acrobat Distiller, I get this error.

So it seems to be a hyperref problem. Hyperref puts a few lines in the .ps file such as:

pdfmark[{ZaDb}<</Type/Font/Subtype/Type1/Name/ZaDb/BaseFont/ZapfDingbats>>/PUT

That seems to be the problem for those of us on Macs who don't have that font set.

David.
