Re: [frame2acrobat] Weird Font in PDF



A font so-labelled is likely a TrueType font that is being sent to
the Distiller as a Type 1 font. The usual cause for this is either
(1) improperly setting the Acrobat Distiller printer to send TrueType
as Type 1 or outlines or (2) creating PostScript for distillation using
an improper PPD or a printer instance not generated for the Acrobat
Distiller. The default setting for the Acrobat Distiller printer instance
is for TrueType fonts to be sent as Type 42 (i.e., native TrueType font
support for Adobe PostScript).
