Font Issues in Acrobat X pro

Hi All, 
A couple of months ago we have upgraded our Acrobat applications to 9 pro and X pro before that we had used Acrobat 7&8 which is having no problem. Since we upgraded to higher versions we have been facing so many font related issues/complaints. Particularly while using TouchUp tool in pdf document so many font error messages are appeared, In some case followed that error alerts some text/character styles has changed (for example text/characters has changed from uppercase style to lower case style). And the compare documents reports also not capturing the changes/modifications exactly as Acrobat 7&8 did. Can you please give us a good suggestion regarding these issues because these issues been big headaches to us. Also please let us know the very latest versions of Acrobat will resolve this issues?
I am expecting your valuable help/support, Please let me know you need any other inputs or clarification on this? 
Thanks!

Are the fonts embedded? If so, are they subset or the full font? Are the fonts on your system?
It may be that you have updated Acrobat at the same time as other software. Note that MS changed the default font that they use in OFFICE and this may be part of the issue. Maybe these questions will at least give you a starting point for finding the problem. Also, you should be sure to update the new versions and not settle for simply the -.0 versions.

  • Font Issue in Acrobat 9 pro and X pro

    Fonts are not displaying properly after selecting the text with Touc-up tool in Acrobat 9 pro and X pro how to solve this issue?

    When Acrobat X installs it will remove an Acrobat 9 install.
    Suggest you Deactivate then uninstall Acrobat 9 before installing Acrobat X.
    May want to root about to locate that Acrobat 9 CD first.
    As the preponderance of resources in Adobe's "Education" space deal with use of Acrobat X you may be better off in the long run by working out of and learning "X".

  • Font name issue in Acrobat XI pro

    Hi All
    While checking the PDF font properties in Acrobat XI it only shows the font family name. Not the full name. In Acrobat X it was perfect. Kindly refer the image below marked in Red. The Actual font name is "Agenda Light Extra Condensed Italic", but the property box shows only Agenda and Italic is hi-lighted. The document font properties shows the correct name. Have any one experienced these kind of issues? Seeing the full font name is very important to me since I am in the position of QC process before print.
    Your suggestions are most welcome.
    Thanks in advance

    What you are actually looking at is the text edit feature which is admittedly not all that robust in terms of how it provides access to fonts.
    If you are trying to check the actual font usage for particular text, you should go to Output Preview and change the Preview mode from Separations to Object Inspector. Click on the text you wish to examine and this tools will show you exactly which font is being used to render the text with the full font name, point size, etc.

  • Font problem with Acrobat 8 Pro

    When I print to pdf using Acrobat 8 Pro, I find that the fonts don't always look the same in the created pdf file as they do in the original document (whether created in Pages or Word). They look a little squished or altered slightly in a way that isn't as smooth as the original. And I'm not even using rare fonts but ones like Arial.
    However when I open these pdf files in Preview the fonts look the same as the original. And when I open them in Reader on a PC they still look as bad as when viewing in Acrobat on the Mac.
    I've tried adjusting the settings in Distiller and have printed the pdf files using a high quality setting that embeds all fonts and still the fonts come out looking not quite right.
    This has been very frustrating to me as I never had this type of problem when using Acrobat on Windows before. The pdf files always came out exactly like the original source document. Is there something different about Acrobat on a Mac or is there a setting or something else I can fix?
    I'm running OS X 10.5.4 on a Macbook Pro.

    Have you checked the font embedding inside File / Properties / Fonts /?
    Are they set to embed or not since High Quality DOES embed the fonts ...

  • Font issue in Acrobat 8

    We have been having problems with .eps files placed in Quark and exported to a pdf. In Acrobat 7 standard the fonts from the .eps file gets garbled when read on the PC. Use local fonts seems to cure this problem, but I took the pdf file and opened it in Acrobat 8 and got this message. "Cannot extract the embedded font 'XYSNP+Trajan-Regular'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." Now all the surrounding text in Trajan that was input from Quark 6.5 changes to a different font when printed. Would switching to an Opentype version of the font solve this problem?
    Thanks

    I have been having the same sort of problem but with Illustrator CS3, Photoshop CS3, InDesign CS2, and Acrobat 8 Professional. I am the only Mac in the building (brand new system), everyone else is on PC. I am only getting the font issue with the Optima family. The school I work for purchased the font as a PostScript Type 1 outline font. We were guessing that I might be having issues because I am on a Mac.
    When working in InDesign, I have to print off most of my pieces on an inkjet printer, if I try to print to a xerox laser, Indesign crashes or pops up with an error "There is a problem with the font Optima." I have been using both methods for creating a pdf in indesign:exporting to and printing as.
    If I use the optima font in Illustrator I get a "can't print the illustration. There's a bad font used in the system" error.
    When I create PDF's through Indesign, the PDF turns out fine on-screen, but the error message pops up "Cannot extract the embedded font 'XQFZSM+Optima'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
    When I try to print the PDF out on either a laser or inkjet printer, the optima font has a lot of missing letters or is replaced by a different font.
    This has been very frustrating. The weird thing is that it doesnt happen with all projects that use the optima font. I have done some very small projects (envelopes, postcards) and have either had an issue or no issue at all with optima; and Ive worked on larger projects (magazines, newsletters) and have almost always-from what I can remember-had a problem.
    Is this something that I can fix with program settings? Or would a Mac compatible font be the solution?
    Thanks

  • Change font in Adobe Acrobat Extended Pro

    I was wondering how I am able to change the font in Adobe Acrobat.  I know we can use the type writer, but how can I make it my own font, color and size? Please help! =)

    You cannot create fonts with Acrobat.
    Doing so requires a dedicated font creation application.
    Or purchas of Fonts to augment what the OS and applications install.
    To change fonts in a PDF to something else that is on the local machine and available to Acrobat you could try this:
    Select characters with the TouchUp Text too.
    Right click for the context menu.
    Select Properties.
    Select the Text tab.
    Look over the configuration options to see if they meet your needs.
    Be well...

  • Issue in Acrobat 9 Pro in Mac OS X

    I have trouble with running Acrobat 9 pro in Mac.
    While trying to open the application, just opens the menu bar and stops responding within seconds. Tried with various files but make no difference.
    I have administrator privilege in the system.
    Distiller works fine.
    Can anybody sort this out.

    I have the same problems when using an account where the home directory is on a fileserver. As soon as it's a local account everything works fine. Adobe Reader 9 has the same problem.

  • Font Issue in Acrobat XI

    I have been editting a PDF document to add references and notes within it.  I am using Acrobat XI on a Windows 7 machine.  As I scroll back through the document I am finding any text I have entered has somehow "magically" turned from text characters to symbols - specifcally they are all now a box with an "X" in it. All other text that existed previously has not been converted to symbols.
    When I copy and paste the symbols from the PDF document I am editting into Notepad, the symbols are once again normal text characters.  Is this then an issue with the default font (Minion Pro)?  If so, how does one go about changing the default font to one that already exists in Windows - perhaps Calibri or Times New Roman?

    What you are actually looking at is the text edit feature which is admittedly not all that robust in terms of how it provides access to fonts.
    If you are trying to check the actual font usage for particular text, you should go to Output Preview and change the Preview mode from Separations to Object Inspector.

  • Fonts issue with Acrobat Reader 9

    We have recently pushed Acrobat Reader 9 in our environment on Windows XP Pro. One of user reported a strange issue, he is opening a PDF file in Acrobat Reader 9 but he is getting half fonts all across the document but if we are opening the same file in Reader 7 we can see complete fonts, also at the same time if we copy and paste them in MS Word or notepad we are getting complete fonts. I have observed that in Reader 9 one option is missing that we have in Reader 7 i.e, "use local fonts" under Documents menu, but not sure if this is the reason behind the issue.
    Please refer to attached screenshot.
    Please help/suggest.
    Thanks in advance
    Vikas

    The option 'use local fonts' is available in Adobe Reader 9.

  • Win 7 compatability issues with Acrobat 9 Pro

    I'm using Win 7 Pro 64 bit OS, Acro 9 Pro, Reader 9, and Live Cycle ES 8.2 (came bundled with Pro). All appear to be functioning. My MUA is Thunderbird 5.0.
    My issue is the mailing of a simple form built in LC that has a button set as a submit control type with the submit URL set to mailto:[email protected] Submit  as xml data with utf-8 encoding. There are also a coupla text fields for elements in the xml.
    I fill it in and click the button but no mail comes to my MUA. There's a dialog asking if my mailer is desktop or browser & I select desktop.
    Also I close LC, open the form in Acrobat and "Extend features". I do the acutal filling in & emailing in Reader 9.
    This used to work on XP, so I am wondering if there is a compatabilty issue here
    A) anyone else have similar experiences?
    TIA
    Tim

    I haven't run into the problem. However, with a 64-bit system you will likely need to update Acrobat. It is not a good idea to have Reader 9 also installed and it would generally be recommended that it be uninstalled. However, you will probably have to run a repair on Acrobat after the uninstall. Then do an update, AA 9 is currently at AA 9.4.5. I believe you have to have something like AA 9.1 or 9.2 for a 64 bit system, but that may be for AA 8 and not AA 9.
    Some changes to the mail and PDF creation were made to AA9 relative to AA8, but Acrobat typically requires the use of MAPI for mail interaction. It may be that your mail package is not set up as a MAPI client. If so, you may need to activate the MAP feature that allows the kind of interaction you are asking about.

  • Font Issue in Acrobat

    Whenever I create a pdf or ps file from InDesign and try to later open it in Acrobat to try and edit the file, it at first lets me edit the file, but when I go to save the file, it tells me that the font could not be embedded because the font stored on the page and the system font are encoded differently. Someone PLEASE help. Thanks!

    Besides hoping the font was fully embedded and not subsetted in Acrobat
    5 (the last issue prior to the forced change in font behaviour) - your
    options are limited. You will have more success with the Pitstop API but
    still not perfect results.
    Pitstop is great for missing system fonts and can use a global change,
    PDF profile and action list to search for unembedded fonts and then
    embeded accordingly.
    Certain fonts are transcoded as such into another format e.g. opentype
    fonts are converted to the type 1 or truetype format when distilled with
    pdf version 1.6 and below (and you have to manually select Opentype to
    have the format retained) - even the PDF export from InDesign still does
    not support opentype retention.
    Besides better pdf generation education (in my previous life) sometimes
    the pieces don't always fint back together ...

  • How can I get Museo Slab font for Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

    My client and his designer use Museo Slab when creating Pdfs.
    My Acrobat doesn't have this font.
    Can I embedd this font in some way? Getting the designer to make tiny, tiny editorial changes is a waste of resources. Unfortuantely the client isn't prepared to change the font of their documents.
    Thanks,
    Emma
