    Hi Icex,

    I downloaded one of your documents namely DE10-Standard_User_manual.pdf

    I see the document was created using Microsoft Word built-in Feature but not with Acrobat functionality. And there are potential font issues with the document, fonts may not have been embedded properly

     

    It seems there was some issue while files were created, I would suggest creating those files again using Acrobat if you haven't figure out a solution to this problem yet.

    Feel free to update the discussion if you have further questions.

    Can you share the file with us (via Dropbox, Google Drive, Adobe Cloud, etc.)?
