Question

Framemaker print loses font - bembo

I have a new laptop and we have documents which use the Bembo fonts. The fonts are installed and the document looks great in Framemaker. When we print the document comes out as if it has lost the Bembo fonts and it comes out as nonsense, worse than wingdings.

 

Does any one have any ideas how to fix this/what i am missing on this new laptop which is required?

 

My colleague also has a new laptop and experiencing the same.

    If you are using Distiller, you might try adding the fonts to Distillers Font Locations

    I have a danish interface, but the menus are the same.

    Hi,

     

    Which FrameMaker version do you have? Do you have the latest update?

    For FM 2020 the version number is 16.0.3.979 for update 3.

     

    Best regards

    Hi Brenda,

     

    I had the same problem and did play with the "Adobe Pdf" printer settings to overcome this problem.

     

    There is a checkbox on this settings page which reads as "Rely on system fonts only, do not use documents fonts". This checkbox is marked as default. I do uncheck it and save the settings and then the document fonts start to appear in the pdf outputs.
