Mangal font reverts to Times Roman in PDF

I'm on Windows 10, using Frame 2017 and Acrobat DC.

I have a Word doc that contains one line in Mangal Unicode font.

I distill it to a PDF and it looks fine.

I open the Word doc in Frame 2017. Line looks fine. I distill it to a PDF and the font reverts to boxes because the font has been substituted with Times Roman.

So I tried copying the line into Illustrator, distill it, PDF is fine.

I'm using the same Distiller options on all 3.Why is it not distilling properly from Frame?

You probably need to deselect the Rely on System Fonts Only option.

Nope. Didn't work. The box was already checked during all the testing so I unchecked it on a whim and it's still reverting to TImes Roman.

Ok, check out the other recommendations in that article...following all of them should solve your problem.

One other thought...if you are choosing a style that doesn't actually exist ("bolding" a bold font, or choosing a nonexistent version like bolded, semibold, etc.) then you might see this as well.

In some cases, other apps will attempt to "fake" the font, even though it technically doesn't exist.
