Embedded font errors (must be a bug)

In a project I've been working on we are unable to use the design view because there's something wrong with embedding fonts. I have embedded to fonts via a CSS style sheet and as soon as I referenced that stylesheet in a component I get the following errors
Description    Resource    Path    Location    Type
unable to resolve 'assets/css/assets/fonts/MYRIADWEBPRO-BOLD.TTF' for transcoding    lmtools        line 14    Flex Style Problem

Unable to transcode assets/css/assets/fonts/myriadwebpro.ttf.    lmtools old        line 12    Flex Style Problem
I can clean the project and clear these errors then compile and run the application where the fonts showed just fine. However if I then rebuild the design view the errors return and design view remains unusable.
Has anyone else experienced this or can anyone help?
( build number 272416 )
Thank you,
Rob

Err, so where's the problem, Herb?
It's normal that Logic just displays one staff if you select a track. Just double click somwhere on a "blank piece of paper" inside the score window, and you'll be switched back to all instruments.

Cannot extract the embedded font error

Hi everyone,
When opening a pdf file, I get the following error:
Cannot extract the embedded font 'QGCXJE+HelveticaNeueLT-Roman'. Some characters may not display or print correctly.
Does anyone know what it means and will it affect the printing when I send it to a printer?
Thanks for any help.

I am getting the same error on making pdfs fomr Illustrator. Though everything looks good, this is not acceptable to send a pdf to the client for review, and was not happening before.
My system
OS 10.8.4
Acrobat 10.1.7
This does not happen on all files, but repetitively on certain series of files, so must be a font conflict in the files.
hmm might be this zapf dingbat, did nto get a warning about missing

Embedded font errors after migrating pdfs to new web server

Hi All,
After hundreds of working pdfs were moved to new web server, they produce variations of the "cannot extract the embedded font" (name of font) "some characters may not display or print correctly" error. The first page loads perfectly and the rest never load. All these files open fine when I open local copies in Reader (9.1.3) and Professional (7.1.0).They also open fine when moved to another server. When I delete copies on the server and re-upload using the working copies, the errors persist. Doesn't make sense. I also occasionally get the error "there were problems reading this document (14)".
I was told by the IT department that a possible cause was that the new server environment used fonts installed on the server rather than the local machine to display pdfs. This doesn't make sense to me. I've researched these errors and haven't found anything applicable or that has worked. Any suggestions? Has anyone else expeienced this?
The server is IIS and is running ASP.net. The IT dudes are saying they need to install all the refferenced fonts on the web server but due to the expense of this, they can't.This will nessecitate a really bizzarre and Rube Goldbergesque workaround (that I'm not even going to try to explain here) that I'd really like to avoid. Any suggestions? Are there any Acrobat settings that need to be twekaed?

Hi,
I read the following on another discussion in this forum:
it appears that with the shortkey ctrl+shift+Y you can force the pc to work around the system fonts
Maybe that helps.

Get the "cannot extract embedded fonts" error message

I get the "Cannot extract embedded font 'UZNVZW+HElveticaNeueLTStd-Hv-Identity-H'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." error message when I generate a PDF from MadCap Flare or Frame Maker. I am on Windows 8 64-bit / Adobe Acrobat 11 / FrameMaker 9 / MAdCap Flare 9.
When I do the same task on a Windows 7 system, works like a whistle.
I am looking at a solution and no workarounds.

Hi hartmanja14,
Please let me know if this is happening with all PDFs or any specific document?
Also, tell me if that document has been created by any third party or not.

Embedded font error message

PDF file in Telugu language will open on computer but the same PDF file will not open from a web site. Error message about embedded fonts that only displays numbers or English words. The web link is www.labiblefacon.com file is under Message of reconciliation any suggestions?

Thanks for your reply
Google search finds the site but Yahoo displays what appears to be French.
I failed to provide the complete link information. It should be
http://www.labiblefacon.com. After selected from browser listing, on the
left side box click on The Message of Reconciliation and when opened
click on lesson 2. ఆది మానవుడు
<http://www.labiblefacon.com/PDF/MOR/2.%20Ealry_Man-Telugu2.pdf>, this
is a PDF file
Only a few pages are available as the site is in the process of being
translated
The page appears to have been written in the Gautami font which is one
of the fonts on MS Word. Adobe reader shows 4 pages but very little is
displayed mainly periods, commas and numbers. To me this implies Adobe
does not recognize the Gautami font.

Cannot extract the embedded font...

I am encountering the following message when opening a particular .pdf:
Cannot extract the embedded font "Arial,Bold". Some characters may not display or print correctly.
I've attempted to open his file at different PCs-message persists.
Adobe Reader 8.1.2
Windows XP SP3
Dell Optiplex 745
2GB RAM

According to this thread: http://choorucode.wordpress.com/2010/02/02/adobe-acrobat-embedded-font-error/
the error relates to a font that is used in the document that is incompatible with the version of Adobe Reader being used (or is an outdated font). On the extreme side, the font itself could be corrupted on the PC of the person who created the PDF. So, you'd want to check:
1) Is the font file on the PC corrupted (does this happen only for documents created by one user on one machine)?
2) Is the font outdated/unsupported?
3) Is the font incompatible with your version of Adobe Reader?

Error message from Adobe Reader. cannot extract the embedded font 'LICCMC+MyriadPro-Light'. some characters may not display or print correctly. Print looks like gibberish

Trying to view/print PDF documents from website. Print looks like gibberish and is unreadable. Problem is with the embedded fonts. Error message from Adobe says cannot extract the embedded font 'LICCMC+MyriadPro-Light'. some characters may not display or print correctly.

Try Adobe support, that's not a Firefox support issue. <br />

Why do PDFs created with some print presets show the error message "cannot extract embedded font."

Whenever I create a pdf from InDesign using a press-quality preset, I get an error message upon opening the file. The error message says that an embedded font cannot be extracted.
InDesign indicates the font is not present in the file.
In Acrobat's properties, the font in the error message is listed and shows that it is not embedded, and that the actual font is unknown.
Running the "embed fonts" from preflight fixups doesn't help.

Found this fix in Preflight: Under prepress, I selected my destination, which is sheetfed offpress (CMYK) and ran the analyze and fix. The updated file opened without the error message.

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.

Error message: "Cannot extract the embedded font DAAAAA+Arial MT..."

hello,
after open an pdf file I get the error message "Cannot extract the embedded font DAAAAA+Arial MT..." I get this message with Adobe Reader Version 6.x, 7.x, 8.x and 9.0 on three different pc (Windows XP). The file was written with Adobe Acrobat Version 8.1
I found the kb402950 but the solution to use Version 7.x didn`t work.
Any other ideas?

Hey k%20street,
There seems to be a font issue within this particular file, but you cannot do anything using only Reader.
So, as long as it displays correctly, there should be no problem with printing. It is simply a warning that apparently something was a miss in an embedded font and result might not be as expected.

How to fix error "Cannot extract the embedded font ...."?

When I open the pdf file on the following webpage, I get the following error message "Cannot extract the embedded font 'BLKDIK+PLBIserif-Medium'. Some characters may not display or print correctly". Is there a way to get rid of such error in the pdf file?

Install Foxit PDF reader, and then you can see the PDF document without any problem.
I think your book was generated from Quartz.
As I know there is no free solution for this problem. Updates of Abobe reader will not work.
tips:
You don't need Foxit reader as a default PDF reader program.
Foxit reader shows document with plain standard font.

Error: cannot extract the embedded font 'WTNNGO+LiberationMono-Bold' when reading a PDF

I am trying to read a pdf file and I get the error: cannot extract the embedded font 'WTNNGO+LiberationMono-Bold'. Then some of the words are displayed as sets of dots, a dot per character. I have tried Adobe Reader 7 through 11 all with the same error. Apparently some fonts are missing. My OS is 64 bit windows 7.

Tell them to embed the font information into the PDF. You don't have the font on your system so as-is, the PDF needs it to display that font. With embedded font information, you don't need the font.

I want to remove this unwanted popup. please provide any possible solutions.

Hi ravindra, what i can suggest you is to set a breakpoint just before ur cursor goes into the pdf part and just comment the part when it comes to the popup. its very easy and the best way to do it.

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,
Regards

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.
