Question

Letter "A" not showing properly when exporting a PDF

Hello everyone;

I have encountered an issue with InDesign (I have the 2020 version).
When I export a PDF, the font I've chosen (a Google font) has a problem: the letter "A" appears broken into different segments (as you can see in the attached picture).

This issue does not occur when I export to JPG or other formats.

How could I solve this problem?

Thank you very much for your support!

    Can you provide more information as to how you are making your PDF? Are you using the approved way of File>Export>Adobe PDF(Print) and choosing one of the included presets (such as High Quality)? If you are exporting a PDf in this manner (with one of the default presets) then all fonts should be embedded into the PDF and there should be no font funkiness such as you've shown. Is the font selectable in the PDF? If it is not then you are somehow converting the InDesign fonts into an image in the PDF. Please be specific as to your process.
