First Point: immediately subscribe to the Framers list consisting of
FrameMaker pros and me, a three month newbie... Maybe some trick like
setting up to text sets, one for printing and one for on screen.

Send a "Subscribe" message to <majordomo@math.mcgill.ca>

Second, make sure that you've set your preferences in Distiller to
include fonts.

Third: fonts, on screen, in a pdf file will look no better than then do
in your other documents. Make a copy and change your paragraph font
settings to a more suitable font.
