What does allandnone font mean?

[floydpeter214]

Hi,

yesterday i opened a pdf to check what font was used and the box said allandnone font. Any idea what does it mean?

Thank you very much

Perhaps you can post a screen shot of exactly what you saw? I assume that this is what is shown checking Document Properties' Fonts tab?

Yes both in properties fonts tab and even tried the modify text option – both showing allandnone font. Will post the screenshot tommorow once i get to work.

Thank you very much for such a quick answer

It doesn't mean anything special. It's just the name of a font, like Arial is the name of a font. A strange name, but people can call a font whatever they like. Many fonts can be purchased, it seems this one cannot easily. Why do you ask?

It just seemed weird to me and i was curious. And speaking of Arial, parts of the text are actually written in Arial. Yet it still shows only AllAndNone font. Added a screenshot also.

Thank you for your answer

There is no screen shot - maybe you emailed it, that doesn't work. Often there are many similar looking fonts with different names. Probably tens of thousands that look like Arial. Also some apps just make up names.

First one looks like an arial to me. Second one is probably Interstate. Thats why it got me confused when its showing some weird name.. The first screenshot was awaiting moderation, but should be there now.

Thank you

Thank you for the screen shot. That really is the name in the PDF. Could well be made up by the app creating it. Not unusual to find that.

Thanks. I have no more to add.
