Correct answer Steve Werner

It prints fine with InDesign 2015, 2017, 2018.


You could file a bug report here but that won't get your job out:

It could be a small change in the way InDesign CC 2019 that made is intolerant of a font that has become damaged. It's really hard to tell.

Did you try Bob's workaround of printing from a PDF file?

Not sure what OS you're on, but since upgrading to CC2019 on Mojave, I can print very little from Indesign without failure. I can export to PDF and print that, but that is a lousy workaround.

I have tried many things. Myanmar MN is a system font. I can make a PDF, I can not export as an .eps or print as a .ps. When I remove Myanmar MN is can print, .eps, .ps. I can open and do everything with InDesign 2018.
