Howdy,

Thanks for sending the file. On my system it displays and prints fine from Preview (TeXshop uses the same Apple Framework so if Preview does ok TeXShop should too). I get the same message as you do when opening in Adobe Reader but it displays and prints fine.

Enclosed is a Font Sample I printed up using XeLaTeX of Myriad Pro and I have no problems with it displaying and printing in both Preview and Adobe Reader.

Enclosed is also a snapshot of what Font Book reads as the Myriad Pro version on my system.
