Hi

 

I am creating a PDF file using Arbortext print publisher.

When I create an inventory of the pdf it shows for few fonts CID value appeared as 0 is there any possibility to change the value without updating the font 

 

Thanks

W. Ahmed

Quite frankly, this is an Arbortext technical support issue, not one associated with anything that Acrobat can reasonably handle if at all. CID-0 fonts imply some type of CJK or similar font with a large number of glyphs. Text using such fonts, the encoding tables, and the fonts are totally inter-related.

 

Please contact Arbortext Technical Support for further assistance with this issue.

Seems like W.Ahmed was creating a postscripted document with Abortext, and maybe, he could've missed to select a value for the  True Type font to embed it correctly.

 

W.Ahmed:

 

Can you confirm if what you say is a CID value " 0"  is actually  an exit code returned by the Abortext application that you're using and not CID Type 0 -- 16-bit font with no specified type?

 

You may need to consult with the support guide for that application.

 

See if the Font Type that you're trying to embed has a Unicode attribute that must match the operating system where the publishing application is running from.

I don't know what you mean by "CID value appeared as 0". Please explain the problem in detail - what is wrong, what you see, what you want to happen. CID fonts are normal.
