Can't print embedded fonts.

I am printing from Word 2013 to Adobe 11.0.3 with 'embed all fonts'. When I print the resulting .pdf to my HP6700, text in Calibri font doesn't appear or appears intermittently. If I don't use 'embed all fonts' it works fine.

We will assume for the time being that by Adobe 11.0.3, you really mean Adobe Acrobat 11.0.3!
Without actually seeing the problematic PDF file, it is very difficult to determine exactly what the problem is.
We also assume that the printing is done from Acrobat 11.0.3 as well.
What happens if you try printing to another printer, preferably a different model, same problem?
Without being able to actually see what is in your PDF file, there are two things we would or could advise:
Check whether there is a newer printer driver available for your HP 6700 printer. If there is, install it and reboot your computer. See if printing is any more reliable now.
The preferred method of creating PDF from Microsoft Office applications if you have Acrobat 11 is to use the Save as Adobe PDF function (from the File tab screen) or the Create Adobe PDF from the Acrobat tab on the ribbon that Acrobat installs. Also ascertain whether this assists.

Can we apply embedded font in extension to a text layer of Photoshop ?

Hi All,
I have embedded some fonts into my Flex extension panel of Photoshop.
Can I apply these fonts to any text layer?
Kindly help URGENTLY!
Thanks,
D.A

Here are 3 options for future reference:
1. With the setup you've described, apply a Match Move behavior to the text and make the rectangle the source. Change the Transform parameter to Mimic source. This way you can still adjust the text postion as needed, but the rectangle will drive the animation.
2. Use a group to do the animation. Put both your rectangle and text in the same group and animate the group's postion.
3. Use the Link behavior.
Each of these has it's advantages depending on what you need.

Can't get embedded font to work on Button

I'm trying to use an embedded font in order to fade Panels as
well as the text in the Panels. I have the following code to set up
the embedding (using Edwardian Script so I can be sure the font
worked):
<mx:Style>
@font-face {
src:url("C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/ITCEDSCR.TTF");
fontFamily:myScript;
.scriptStyle {
fontFamily:myScript;
</mx:Style>
This works fine when I apply this style to Labels using the
styleName property, but when using it on a Button, I get a really
fuzzy/ugly text, as though the font didn't work and some bad
default were used, that didn't scale to the small size very well.
I've also tried directly setting fontFamily directly on the
Button control, rather than using the intermediary style
(scriptStyle).
Is there some restriction about using embedded fonts on
Buttons?

Hi,
I was just looking for answers to my own question when I
noticed this, which was giving me a problem earlier this week. I
found that the default text for a button is 'bold' so if you
haven't specified a bold embedded font, then it won't look good. I
just got around it by specifying a 'normal' fontweight for my
buttons.
I would imagine that, after all this time, you've probably
found the answer, but thought it might help anyone else who is a
couple of weeks behind me on the learning curve ...

(How) can I use Embeded Fonts in Flex 3.3

If I understand correctly, I need to transcode/embed the fonts in Flex 4 / CS 4, but is there any way to then get those embeded fonts into a Flex 3.3 application?

Support for DefineFont4 (the cff property) is new in Flex Gumbo. It is not available in Flex 3.X. That said – I do have a solution for you. Create a separate Flex Gumbo project and use the cff property to embed the font you need into that SWF. Then embed the font SWF that you just created in Gumbo into your Flex 3.3 application.
Check out the “Building a Font SWF for use in any Flash Application” section in my DefineFont4 blog post:
http://blogs.adobe.com/tlf/2008/11/embedded_font_subsetting_using.html
Here is an article on embedding a SWF in Flex:

Hope this helps!

ASDoc Error: Can't find Embedded Fonts?

Hello,
I am working in Flash CS5 Professional.
On my stage, I have a dynamic TextField (my_txt) that uses a basic font, we'll say Arial. However, I want to format some of the text within the field with a custom font.
I've embedded the font and exported to ActionScript as per Adobe's documentation, so now there is a Font item in my library named "MyCustomFont".
The properties of the Font are -
Class: MyCustomFont
Base Class: flash.text.Font
So, I've written a custom class file and I want to format the text, so the AS code within the class looks something like this:
var my_font:Font = new MyCustomFont();
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = my_font.fontName;
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt, 5, 15);
This is pretty much like the examples I've seen in Adobe Docs. And, it works swimmingly when I test the movie; however, when I try to document the class using the ASDoc command line tool, I get the error:
/Path/To/Project/And/The/Classes/SomeClass.as(221): col: 27 Error: Call to a possibly undefined method MyCustomFont.
var my_font:Font = new MyCustomFont();
^
I THINK I understand why ASDoc isn't finding the "method" MyCustomFont... the "method" is actually a Class contained in the Library within the .fla.
So, is there a special argument I need to write in the ASDoc command line so that it will recognize embedded fonts?
Or, am I supposed to use an "import" statement in SomeClass to import the embedded fonts somehow?
Thanks!

Ahhh...found the answer, do the same thing as I would do for any project that uses the built-in AS3 components (such as FLVPlayback):
Put the Font items into a new .fla library and export a SWC.
Then use the "-library-path /Path/to/SWC" argument in the ASDoc command line tool.

Is ID exported PDF considered non-editable? (In the case of view&print embedding permission fonts)

Hiya!
I am a graphic designer and I use InDesign 5.5.
I have a question about font embedding when using the InDesign's export as a PDF in "print" format feature.
Many fonts allow embedding into digital documents only for the purpose of viewing and printing.
In addition to this the font EULA's mention that the embedded font may not be used to edit the document.
Is it possible to create a non-editable PDF with embedded fonts?
Is choosing PDF export option "print" the key here, or embedding the fonts as a subset?
Isn't it still possible to edit PDF in Acrobat with touch up text tool? Or use some third party editing program?
OR Is a PDF file - with fonts embedded as a subset - non-editable as such, or at least considered to be non-editable enough?
Or is it just that the file doesn't really have to be non-editable, but it must not be edited...
How do I ensure that? Do I even need to ensure that?
Whole thing seems so controversial.
Hope someone can shed some light into this!!!
-Ahlax-

Ahlax,
There are several separate concepts here.
First, PDF is really a final form file format. It wasn't designed as an editable format for layout such as InDesign's .indd format ane Word's .doc and .docx formats. Although PDF files may be tagged with contextual metadata, typical content of PDF files contains no context in terms of words, sentences, paragraphs, columns, etc. It is simply graphical objects including text fragments, vector artwork, and raster images at a particular place on a page with specified graphical attributes (color, transparency, etc.). As such producing a full PDF file editor first requires definition of what it actually means to edit such a file given the characteristics of PDF files.
That having been said, Acrobat and various third party plugins to Acrobat as well as third party applications provide some degree of editability for PDF files, recognizing that such edits are definitely not at the abstractual level that you get with InDesign. You can “touch-up” text, but doing a re-layout is effectively impossible. In most cases, it is better (in terms of time, effort, and resultant quality) to go back to the source document, make the changes there, and then regenerate the PDF.
Fonts are a totally separate issue. Adobe products will not embed any font into a PDF file unless the font allows for at least preview and print embedding. For PDF forms, Acrobat requires a font to allow editability embedding. However for text touch-up and other edits, Acrobat never uses the embedded font. Such edits are only allowed if the user has the same font actually installed on their system.
In terms of forcing a PDF file to be totally non-editable, that is done by applying security to the file when you export the PDF file from InDesign (the Security tab) or in Acrobat Pro after PDF creation (go to the Security tab under Document Properties (Ctrl-D) to set such security).

Cannot extract the embedded font 'F2'. Some characters may not display or print correctly.

This question was previously published but no answer has been found.
Error message is :
"Cannot extract the embedded font 'F2'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
Many pdf documents display this error with Adobe Reader 8.1.0. We have errors for embedded fonts 'F0','F3','F7' and so on.
It looks like a Adobe Reader bug because :
- All PDF files can be opened with Acrobat Reader 5.0.5, 6.x and 7.x, can't be opened with 8.1.0 version.
- the 8.1.1 update removes only the bug for 'F0' error message (issue #1572280).
The solution :
- to publish a 8.1.2 update to fix this important bug
- is there a registry parameter or tool option to disable the checking added in 8.x version of Adobe Reader ? The 8.x version catches more errors to be compliant with Adobe specification but Adobe reader must be
compliant with all documents generated by third party products.
This Adobe Reader bug applies to Windows Vista, XP Pro SP2, 2000.
Thx,

Just to let you know, for anyone else with this problem. I had this problem occur on a MAC when you tried to do save to PDF in excel. This was all happening at the point of generation of the PDF in my case.
The fix was to delete ALL the microsoft preferences, but perahps only the font cache needed to be deleted.
I deleted the following areas from the local users userprofile on the mac. On windows, I would probably log in as a differnet user to try to see if the problem just exsists for one particular user.
Here are the sections I deleted:
Library/caches/metadata/Microsoft*
Username/library/preferences/com.microsoft* ( and anyhting with microsoft in it)
I did leave the entourage settings though.
hope it helps someone with a similar issue.

Cannot extract the embeded font 'KDGXKF+TTF5BC9A0t00'.Some characters may not display or print correctly.

I am currently using Adobe Reader version 9.1.3. When I open certain files, it displays the following message, "Cannot extract the embeded font 'KDGXKF+TTF5BC9A0t00'.Some characters may not display or print correctly". Some fonts are actually missing and will not display when printing. I have tried updating adobe but the problem still persists. Under file properites, the following font TTF5BC9A0t00 is recognised by Adobe as true type and custom encoding. Anyone has any suggestions for fix??

BUT, does it say "embedded" or "embedded subset" next to the font name. If not, the font isn't included in the file and if you don't have it, it can't display or print it.
The file creator will need to embed the fonts properly although "some" fonts don't allow embedding. This could be one of them.

Print PDF without embedded fonts (for USPTO)

I need to print PDFs that can be uploaded to the US PTO, and for them to be compatible they must not have any embedded fonts. I am using the Acrobat XI Distiller with the configuration file downloaded directly from the PTO website http://www.uspto.gov/ebc/portal/efs/uspto.joboptions, but the fonts are still being embedded. Is there any way to get the PDF distiller to not embed any fonts?

The .joboptions file that your posting points to very specifically requests that all fonts be embedded, subsetted!!!
Thus, if you are using these joboptions to produce PDF, you are getting exactly what the joboptions call for.
If someplace on the US Patent and Trademark Office website is telling you to not embed fonts and then provides these joboptions, then they are giving you conflicting information!
However, searching that website, I found instructions for PDF file creation such as at <EFS-Web PDF Guidelines> and the attached PDF file from the website.
In fact, the US Patent and Trademark Office absolutely requires that you embed all fonts.

Embedded fonts still print garbage to any printer

Hello,
I'm using Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.08 and even though I can't find anything wrong with the document or settings I'm using, I still can't print without getting font substitutions to garbage characters.
Preflight shows all fonts are embedded, but that they can't map to unicode.See example report below
Fonts are:
Type 1 font: "EX_CFF_Frutiger_LT_Std_45_Light"
Type 1 font: "EX_CFF_Frutiger_LT_Std_45_LightBold"
Type 1 font: "EX_CFF_Frutiger_LT_Std_55_Roman"
Type 1 font: "EX_CFF_Lucida_Console"
Type 1 font: "EX_CFF_USPS_Bar_Code"
Tried different printers as well as MS XPS Document Writer.
Tried all recommended things in the adobe web support docs.
Tried searching google and forums for solutions.
Tried rewriting the document.
Tried various preflight fixes.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Brian

I know this is an old thread, but I was just wondering if anyone knows a solution to this. I have an issue which seems similar...
I have a user that is having a problem printing some PDF files. Many print fine, but some print junk text... sometime the entire document and other times just part of the text. For example, on a document that prints incorrectly the word "Quotation" displays fine on the screen but prints out like this "œ´±¨ø¨∑±≤". It prints this way across every printer, including printing it back to a pdf file or to a Microsoft xps document. When other users on the network print the exact same document to the exact same printers (same driver) it prints out fine. Here's the steps I have taken so far:
- Completely uninstalled Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Reader and reinstalled both (and each one individually to see if that made any difference). One time I actually went though the registry and deleted every reference to Acrobat that I could find.
- Tried to print the document as an image.
- Verified all the printing and Acrobat settings against a machine that I know is working fine.
- Replaced as many Windows system fonts as I could.
I've been working on this for weeks and there are probably other things I have tried, but those are the ones I can think of right now. My next step is to just go onsite to the client, format the hard drive and start from scratch, but I'd really like to avoid doing that. If anyone could help me out with a solution, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

How can I increase the font size of my email when I print it out, it is printing tiny

How can I increase the font size when I print out emails, it is printing tiny size?

In the Print dialog window, click the small reveal-button to the right of the printer's name -
The window will expand to show additional settings (similar to 'old' Page Setup) -
Be sure "Scale:" is set to 100% and the 'Keep apparent font size' item is checked.

How can I create a PDF with embedded fonts (not a subset of the font) from Excel?

I need to create PDF's from Excel spreadsheets. The PDF needs to have embedded fonts but every time I create one it only has a subset of the embedded font. I have tried setting preferences in the Acrobat add in (unchecked the "Subset Embedded Fonts" option and also tried with the Subset Embedded Fonts checked but the percentage set to only 1% in an attempt to force full font to be embedded.)
I also tried opening the resulting PDF with Acrobat Pro XI but could not figure out how to add the font in.
A method to accomplish the results from either tool would be great.

Anna;
Unless you can add those fonts to your system via the Font book and then substitute them in iPhoto, you'll have to either user the available fonts or create your own pages, 8.5 x 11, in an image editor like Photoshop Elements and use them on pages that are one photo per page. Other's have done that with some success.
If you has PS or PSE create an 8.5 x 11" canvas at 300 dpi. Then you can add your photos, add text (if PS can use the text), and create your own layout.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
