Question

All text disappears from Android + Iphone using Acrobat Reader

Hi

When viewing some pdf's all text disappears, only images and vector objects remain, when viewed a PC (with Acrobat) or a

third party viewer on Andriod it displays correctly.

All fonts are embedded so that shouldn't be a problem and preflight gives all green when checking for pdf syntax errors.

Both screenshots are from the same pdf/device, one is opened with Acrobat and the other Google's

Any ideas as to why this happens?

Thanks in advance, Thord.
