We have placed the "acroct.ini" file with below settings in "C:\Windows" location.

[WinFntSvr]

TTToSysPrintDisabled=1

T1ToTTDisabled=1

 

Kindly provde the details like how Acrobat Reader interprets the above settings, when printing a pdf file, which contains true type fonts to any printer.

What is the impact of the above settings on the fonts used in the pdf file, when it is printed to a printer from Acrobat Reader 2020.013 version.

Adobe has archived the Blog post which documented this, but you can perhaps find a copy here: https://web.archive.org/web/20170729085913/http://blogs.adobe.com:80/dmcmahon/tag/acroct-ini/

    I don't remember seeing any mention of this in the API documentation (but that does not mean much, with several thousand pages of documentation, it's easy to miss a thing or two). Where did you find information about these options, and what are they supposed to help you with?

      Dear Karl,

      Thank you for your reply.

      We are using this "acroct.ini" file in "C:\Windows" folder, then printing a pdf file to our virtual printer application. This pdf file contains some embedded true type fonts. With this settings, the printed output is fine (i.e. OK case).

      Without these settings, when printed, in the printed output, the first page contains some corrupted/garbled text (i.e. NG case).

      We want to explain to our customer, how the issue is resolved the issue with the above settings as described in the subject.

      Thatswhy, we are requesting Adobe to share the information related to the above settings, and how Acrobat Reader utilizes these settings during printing, and how the data corruption is resolved.

      Thanks in advance for your reply.

       

      Regards,

      Subramanyam
