Pdf defaults fonts

I just bought CS6. When I export a file from Indesign to a pdf, the fonts change in the pdf. How do I create the pdf so that it displays the fonts I used?

Going to give a try...
I did try saving each slide as an image from ppt, then created a new slide deck with one image per slide - added transitions and uploaded to Connect. That seemed to work.... yet, really would like to sort out Captivate as I plan on adding quizzes and other items best done with Captivate.
Cheers,
Fred

Defaulting fonts when viewing DPS articles in Adobe Content Viewer

Hi.
My fonts are defaulting throughout my folio when I view articles in Adobe content viewer.
This folio is a PDF. I have published before and not had this issue.
Is the problem with Content Viewer?
Will the type display correctly when I publish this folio and view in app?
Thank you.

When a font is missing or unlinked that font shows up as a default font.
The fonts in these documents are not missing or unlinked.
When I update the article it fixes the problem, but only temporarily.
The fonts default the next time I view the article.

How do you set default fonts and default text box sizes on bound form fields?

I am using an existing PDF as a template to build my form in designer.
I am dragging my objects from the schema window to the form and when I drop it on the form it is way too big - so for every field I do this with I am left to resize and reset the font to every bound object i drop on the page!
Is there a way to set the default font and the default dimensions of the bound text boxes I am droping on the PDF form page?
Thanks to anyone who can help!

iWork '09 DVD set (containing Pages '09 v4.0, Numbers '09 v2.0, and Keynote '09 v5.0) is available from Amazon for USD $20. Apple no longer provides retail store, or OS X App Store downloads. You will need to apply the Apple iWork 9.3 updater afterwards to bring these applications to their n.3 (e.g. Pages '09 v4.3) last versions. You will have an /Applications/iWork '09 folder afterwards.
I would also launch /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities, select your boot drive, and verify/repair permissions — just to be on the safe side for the newly added iWork '09 applicaitons.

I need to substitute the default font (times roman) in my editable form fields with a san serif...

I am making a PDF with editable form fields out of InDesign CS6. When I make the interactive PDF, the font, Helvetica Neue is being substituted with the default font, Times Roman. The client has provided me with last years PDF which has a nice San Serif for the editable fields. I need to change the font either to Helvetica Neue, or at least to a nice San Serif common system font. I have Acrobat X.
Thanks in advance!!

I called a friend of mine who walked me through this so I will post the instructions for anyone else who may be having this problem...
1. Open the PDF with the form fields in a recent version of Acrobat.
2. Click on the Toolls tab.
3. Under Forms, click Edit.
4. Now you will see your fields listed under "Field" > "Sort by"... "Text Field 1"... etc.
5. Holding "control" click where it says "Text Field 1" and some options will pop up.
6. Click on "Properties".
7. A "Text Fields Properties" window will pop up.
8. Click on the "Appearance" tab.
9. Here you can change your fonts and font sizes.
Good luck!

Changing Default Font in Acrobat 7 and/or Acrobat Reader 9

Anyone know how to change the Default Font in Acrobat 7 and/or Acrobat Reader 9? Whenever I open a PDF document the text defaults to a Times New Roman or basic font. Can we change the default font?

The fonts are defined as part of the created PDF. If you mean something else, then please explain. A PDF is designed to replicate the document it was created from and thus the fonts are defined by the originating document. If you do not have the font and it is not embedded, then Acrobat tries to find a close version to substitute.

No. The font is determine by the person that created the pdf.

Changing default fonts

I created a document on my home compter with Professional 7 and when i open the pdf on another computer, the font has changed from the orginal - how do i force the correct font to be used regardless of what computer i may open the pdf on ?

isn't there some way to just have a default font?
Mail lacks that feature, but you make a custom stationery set to your preferred font and select that for all new messages, if you find that easier than making the settings in the New Message pane every time.

How to set a different default font

Is there a way to set a different font other that Myriad Pro as the default font so that you don't have to continually reset it for every field or label???

During import, Designer attempts to match fonts in the PDF file with fonts that are available on your computer. If the file contains an unavailable font, Designer displays a dialog box showing the missing font and a suggested replacement. You can accept the replacement font or change it.
This font substitution is not permanent. Designer must map the unavailable fonts every time the form opens. You can make the font substitution permanent by selecting File > Save As and then selecting Permanently Replace Unavailable Fonts before saving the file. This method is recommended for permanently substituting fonts.
You can also set up a font-substitution table in the file ConvertPDF_FontMap.txt in the Designer installation directory. If you add a font-substitution rule to this file, all occurrences of the substituted font are changed to the new font when you import a PDF, regardless of the font-mapping table and regardless of whether the substituted font is available on your computer.
ConvertPDF_FontMap.txt is empty by default. Each entry you add should have the following syntax:
input_font=Designer_font
where input_font is the name of the font used in the input PDF file, and Designer_font is the name of the font that is installed on your computer. Asterisks (*) represent wildcard characters. For example, the string *Cour* refers to all font names that contain the string Cour. Question marks (?) represent single-character wildcards. Adding wildcard characters before and after the input_font name accounts for any slight variations in the name of the font in the form. For example
*Arial*=Arial
*Helv*=Arial
*Cour*=Courier New
*=Times New Roman
Processing occurs in descending order. The last line in the example converts all remaining fonts to Times New Roman.

Acrobat 8 --- remarks and markups --- default font setting

Dear readers,
In acrobat 8 pro, pdf from customers contain markups for remarks.
These have the default font ArialMT.
You should be able to change the default font using the menu:
change / preferences / general, items "new document" and "remarks".
Unfortunately, this doesn't help; default font is still ArialMT.
Is this a bug or can you only set a default for NEW documants or NEW remarks ?
thanx, JL

yes
thanx for your effort.
sorry i did not mention this.
do you know this problem from earlier versions ?

Increase default font size across all applications?

I just got a new Macbook with a 15.4 inch 1400x900 screen resolution, and I am finding that the text on screen is really tiny in most cases (on the Apple menu it is fine).
Even some buttons are tiny.
Is there any way to increase the text size systemwide? Since the GUI is PDF based, it ought to scale well, right?
I don't want to lower the resolution, because I naturally want to keep the sharpness.

Hi, eobet.
There's no way of doing this through the Mac OS X GUI itself. However, the freeware application TinkerTool permits you to "set nine categories of default fonts used in Cocoa applications." This permits you to change the font used and its size.
This facility employs hidden settings within Mac OS X, so it's a bit of a hack and should be used with caution and at your own risk.
The graphical elements of the GUI, such as the buttons you cite, cannot be changed other than by lowering the resolution.
For the visually impaired, Mac OS X offers a Zoom option in System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing. This permits one to magnify a portion of the screen to the full width of the screen.
Good luck!

Detecting when Assembler used a Default Font vs. the one specified

Greetings:
I am trying to develop a process that will add page content to pdf documents.
I have DDX written to perform the functions I need.
One area that I need to address is when the font-family in the DDX is not found by LiveCycle, and LiveCycle uses a default font.
I have set the Job Log Level to 'Finest',.
I have run the job with a valid font specified, as well as a bogus font.
For both successful jobs and unsuccessful jobs, I see the same messages:
I see a listing of the default font (Minion Pro).
I see a listing of my input command.
I do not see any indication that a default font was used instead of what was specified.
Is there any way to trap this situation?
Thanks
Mark

How do you change the default font in Illustrator CS5?

I have upgraded my Illustrator to CS5 and my default font has changed to a strange font. In Photoshop and InDesign, I was told that all you have to do is change the font in the Character menu to the font that you wish to be set as "default" and it will be the font that you always start with.
NOTE: Does this mean that if I use a different font in a different document, the font will stay that font unless I change it back? Isn't there a way to make a particular font the font that I would always what I start with? All this setup means, is that the "default font" will always be whatever the last font that was being used was. There has to be a way to make a default font that I will always start with no matter what the last font that was being used was.
Illustrator gives you no option on font type, unless a file is open. Then, if you change the font and close the file, next time you start a file, it will go back to what is was to begin with. There has to be a way to change the default font for all of these programs to where the font always stays the same unless you change it. Mine is just set to use a weird font that I would probably never use.
I just never thought it would be that big of a deal to change default settings for the font.

Okay, I basically made three different documents and I made sure that I had everything chosen in each. I then saved the three to that file and they now appear in the list:
Settings for all 3:
72psi, 150psi and 300psi
Rulers Visable
Times New Roman
12pt
14.4pt
I then went in and started three new documents. I used the three different New Document Profile's that I made and they all had Rulers, their sizes were correct, but the font stayed Myriad Pro. Did I miss anything? And, Yes, I did change the font and the setting before I saved them in the New Document Profile.
One other thing, I did create a file in the folder, but it was spelled incorrectly. I then went into the folder, erased it and made a second. Then, I went to open it in IllustratorCS5 and it was still listed. I went to the file and it wasn't there anymore, but it was still listed in the New Document Profile. Is there a way to get it off of the list or is all I have to do is restart Illustrator?

How do you change the Default Font setting for a HP 6310 all-in-one?

I've had this printer for a couple of years and has worked great, but just recently, the main body of text is shadowed, like a shadow font. If i print from MS word and select my font it prints great, but the default font for printing emails and anything off of the web has this shadow

It has no style so seems to be beyond the user's control.
I've tried changing it to something else and redefining the Free Form style, but it doesn't apply when you create a new comment.
The closest you'll get to what you want is to have a Style that you like and apply it to every comment when you open it, using an FKey shortcut.

Unable to change default font in Themes

I have been trying unsuccessfully to change the default font in a theme. When I change the font in one of the master slides and click the Format/Advanced menu item, the "Save as Default for Current Theme" is grayed out, as all all the other options in the Advanced menu. I've tried the same thing from a slide in the presentation [not a master slide] and the same thing occurs.
Any ideas as to what is going on and how I can access this command? Otherwise I'll have to go through each and every master slide and make the change [and that might still not work]. Thanks for any help.
