But beware that the AdobePS 4.2.4 PostScript driver for Win9x 
apparently has a bug which for some printer models sometimes 
drops a character in PostScript output. I have occasionally 
encountered this printing Helvetica font text from Word 97 SR-1 
to an HP LJ 4MV.

For a workaround see e.g. in the Adobe User to User Forums
