Fonts not working in PDF

Hi everyone,

 

After switching to RH 2020, and moving to another machine, fonts are not being reflected in the PDF output - despite the correct stylesheet being used. It does reflect the colours, and the settings clearly reflect those fonts in use.

 

Does anyone have idea what this could be?

    In the PDF it should work if you check Embed Unused Fonts.

     

    In Word, you can only use standard Windows fonts. See http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/rh_tour/rh2020/outputs/outputs_word.htm on my site.

    After some testing, it appears to be an issue for fonts that I've installed specifically for this: Monserrat and Ubuntu. When I switch to other fonts, it seems fine. Those fonts are visible and selectable, however. But not in generated output.

    Based on your first post in the thread I would have suggested trying selecting Embed Used Fonts but you have added the problem is also in Word.

     

    Have you applied a master page with a different CSS applied to it?

    Do you have the fonts defined also available on the new machine?

    Hi there,

     

    I do. Those fonts are reflected in the settings, too. I can see them. But the output, such as PDF and Word, don't reflect those settings.
