Hi,

I'm getting problem in rendering MathType EPS files in InDesign. Accents symbols are fine in MathType, but the same accents are boxed in InDesign. But the document has the same accents as paragraphs which are fine. Not sure what has to be fixed. I'm using Adobe Garamond Pro but having the same issue with Minion Pro font family as well. Please help me with your valuable suggestions.

Regards

    Hi,

    I'm getting the same problem with some accents in Times New Roman font as well. Please check characters 2 and 3.

    I’m pretty sure; it is not because of my font management. I don’t have duplicate fonts and font type conflicts in my system.

    Amazing! it works like a charm. But I've dozens of equations and don't know this procedure in automated workflow where my tools allows only .eps files (have more problems in placing .pdf). Also PDF format has excessive space around the equation needs to be trimmed. But I'm okay to continue this solution. Is there any way for batch conversion from .eps to .pdf?


    Yes there is, in Illustrator.

    look here

    Convert multiple AI files to EPS or PDF files in Adobe Illustrator CS4, CS3, or CS2

    it is written that they are for cs4 but they are the same for cc
