Hello, 

 

I did a book and I can publish the PDF. 

But when trying to send a review PDF, the document is not readable. I mean the text is changed :s 

 

What option do I need to change to make the PDF for review ok ? 

I don't understand.. It is an unstructured FM and I did check the bow "Generate Tagged PDF" as recommended. 

 

Thank you for your support!

    How is the PDF review process any different? How are you creating it?

    For the PDF review, I must go to REVIEW > saves as PDF review and there the PDF output is unreadable... 

    Going trough Publish option, the output is fine 

     

    :s I don't understand what is wrong

    Does Review require that each entire font be embedded? (so that reviewers can type characters not necessarily present in the original) If so, embed permissions might be an issue.

     

    That aside, Futura is an appalling typeface (having had to use it once). Great name; nil legibility; letters and numbers are ambiguous. The Latin lowercase "j" is missing entirely.🙄


    Hi Bob,

    Years ago we also used Futura as our company font, and I can assure you that the lowercase j was in that font. Possibly you had a version from a non-trustworthy provider?

    I did not like this font either.

    Best regards, Winfried

    That looks like you've used a font that wasn't embedded in the PDF stream. How (what method) did you use to generate it?

    Hello Jeff, I am using the font "Futura LT" and to publish the PDF I as using the "publish" button. There it works fine.

    But going trough PDF review, it is not working...
