thanks a lot
I think it is an encoding problem.
When I open it  in embedde pdf reader in firefox, the a print it  as a pdf
file I get same problem,
but if I print it as a PS file, the problem is fixed and the display is
correct.
So the problem is in " pdf font" ?
by the way pdf uses  font?

thanks again
regards
