Problem with Courier font since upgrading to Office 2007

Hi everybody,
Since we upgraded to Office 2007, one of our Acrobat users (he is the only person in the firm really using Acrobat actually) has problems when exporting Word documents to PDF.
So he is using Word 2007 and Acrobat Pro 9 (included in the CS4), he is modifying documents that were created with earlier versions of Word and the problem he has is since he has upgraded to Office 2007 (he was already using Acrobat Pro 9 without problem with Word 2003), text in the Courier font is replaced by those rectangles like unknown characters :
So I would like to know what has changed in Word 2007 that makes it that the Courier font cannot be exported to a PDF (from what I read it is one of the standard fonts always included in PDF readers), if I can change some settings to fix it without modifying all the Word documents or at least get a warning when it is going to happen.
Indeed the user's biggest concern is that he doesn't even receive a warning that that specific font won't be output correctly so he might change only some text or images in the Word document and export it to PDF and he will still have to check the whole document to make sure there was no Courier text that didn't make it through.
P.S. He is using the Adobe PDF printer to do the export.
Thanks.
Jonathan V.

Actually, I have a bit more information to share :
In the PDF files created before upgrading to Office 2007 (with Word 2003), I can see that Courier - Type 1 - ANSI is partially embedded (I thought it was supposed to be one of the base/system fonts).
I tried to export one of the Word documents affected again, replacing part of the Courier text with the Courier New font to see if it would work, the text in Courier New is showing correctly while the text in Courier still shows as squares.
When I check the fonts in the PDF file, CourierNewPSMT - TrueType - ANSI, is embedded (not partially ??) and Courier - TrueType - ANSI is partially embedded.
So I don't understand why Courier was embedded as Type 1 (but it worked) and now it supposedly embeds a TrueType Courier font that doesn't seem to work.
Again, the major problem is that there is no warning that the font won't output correctly, so you have to check the whole document again or you might end up with some parts unreadable.

  • Problems with EXCELSIUS 2008 after upgrading MS-Office 2007 to SP2 ??

    Hi Community,
    has anyone experienced how EXCELSIUS 2008 works after upgrading MS-Office 2007 to the new SP2 ??
    (including "2007 MS Office Suite Service Pack2 (SP2)" and "MS Office Compatibility Pack Service Pack 2 (SP2)" and "Security Updates for MS Office System 2007 (KB969618)" and "Update for 2007 MS Office System (KB967642)")
    We're going to upgrade our PCs and need to know about any possible trouble/problems with our mission critical applications (and EXCELSIUS was identified as one of them
    Thanks in advance ...
    Peter

    I'm not sure if MS Office 2007 SP2 will actually cause any problem, but according to the supported platform list for Xcelsius 2008 SP1, MS Office 2007 SP2 is not listed (Office 2007 is).
    Other Tools
    =============
    Office      (Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Word)
    Windows Office 2003                  
    Windows Office 2003  SP1               
    Windows Office 2003  SP2               
    Windows Office XP  SP3
    Windows Office 2007
    Fix packs typically do not include additional platform support, so I believe that 2007 SP2 is still not supported as of FP3. I'm pretty sure though that Office 2007 SP2 will be supported in the very near future...

  • Is anyone having problems with apple mail since upgrading to Yosemite?

    MacBook Pro 15", mid 2012 running Yosemite 10.10.1 - ever since upgrading to Yosemite, I have a problem with Apple Mail which is that the from address persists on my screen after I close the email.  I have to quit mail and sometimes even restart to get rid of it.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Any ideas? 

    No, I mean it lingers when I close the email. What I've discovered since I posted earlier is that if I reopen the email and hover over the address  in the actual email the one that is persisting goes away.  Thank goodness, because it is very annoying. I am wondering if it is somehow intentional in the SW. Thank you for asking. 

  • Problem with network drives since upgrading

    Anyone else having issues with mapped network drives in Mavericks?
    I've bene using a Windows 2012 server for ages and not had any problems with the various drive mappings, but since upgrading to Mavericks I'm constantly getting an error -51 when copying files, only a reboot fixes it, and then only for a short while. Nothing has changed on the server.
    Other non Maverick machines are working fine.
    Si

    Yes, same problem here and there are more reports in this forum. A patch from Apple is required, I think.

  • Smartform - Problem with COURIER font

    Hi All,
      I assigned a COURIER font to a field in smartform. The font in the printout is not the same as font shown in Smartstyle preview. Please suggest your ideas to solve this problem.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Ramesh

    Hi,
    The Courier font style works like that only. even if you do in MS-word also it will look different.
    it will display / print bigger fonts when you take the prints compared to preview
    please reduce the size of the font to 8 or 9 which is good to display
    or use HELVE which will look like ARIEL

  • Problem with Cisco VPN since upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard a couple of hours ago I can no longer open up my CiscoVPN application (version 4.9.01) which I use to connect to my network at work. When I try now I just get an "Error 51: message"
    *Error 51: Unable to communicate with the VPN subsystem.*
    Please make sure that you have at least one network interface that is currently active and has an IP address and start this application again.
    I can still connect to the network if I use Parallels and use the Windows VPN client - but that's not really the point! I've tried the popular suggestion for Error 51 errors in the past (typing "sudo SystemStarter restart CiscoVPN" via Terminal) which doesn't work.
    Any ideas or help appreciated.
    Acculess

    I was able to get it working without re-downloading the client (4.9.0.1.0080 was already installed). I noticed that System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN had been removed during the upgrade to snow leopard, so I pulled it back off of a Time Machine backup. Restoring that directory and doing a 'sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/CiscoVPN restart' seemed to fix things up.

  • Problem with 4 displays since upgrading from 10.3.9 to 10.5.6

    I was happily running 4 displays from my 2 graphics cards (9600XT and 9200) under 10.3.9. 3 x DVI (one of which is with the ACI adapter) and 1 running via VGA to a plasma TV. The 3 displays running from DVI were all "name" recognized and all resolution options were available.
    I have now upgraded to 10.5.6 and suddenly two of the displays are recognized and I am only given a single, low resolution option on the other two - also on these two affected displays, display the Leopard background (the Universe pic) is mainly blue - almost like when you have a loose cable (but they are not).
    The problem is not card specific i.e. it seem to effect one socket from each card.
    I have tried swapping the displays between the cards and when I do the alternate display is then recognized so it can't be a problem with any of the displays either.
    Any ideas? I need all 4 displays running in their respective resolutions (and without a blue screen) for Logic screenshots.

  • Problems with search bar since upgrading to 4.0

    We run two applications that worked flawflessly under 3.2 but have some issues now we have upgraded to APEX 4.0. The first application was built using a slightly altered (colors only) theme provided with APEX 3.2 (don't know its original name since we copied it under another one but it was the orange/grey one). Since upgrading the finder dropdown menu doesn't show anymore. Or rather, a tiny fraction of it is visible, only the top 2 mm or so, exactly the part that falls within the confinements of the search bar. Also the ascending/descending images don't show (although I am not quite sure that they did before the update).
    Our second application was built using a third party theme and has -since the upgrade- some additional issues: the finder dropdown menu doesn't appear at all (not even a tiny bit) and the symbols for toggling between report and chart appear but don't work. We tried switching it to one of the themes that come with APEX 4.0 and after that everything worked fine. Alas, a theme switch is no option for the production versions.
    Suggestions, anyone?
    Robert (still struggling to change my handle).

  • Big problems with AA8.1.2 and XP/Office 2007

    I've had so many problems with AA8.1.2 since I got this new laptop that I'm about to trash the entire machine :^(
    Everytime I start any Office product, Windows Explorer or anything that seems to be using the shell, AA launches in to the installer then aborts with ERROR 1606 Could Not Access Network Location \Startup. I'd just as soon uninstall AA altogether at this point but it even fails its own uninstall with the same error. With the Office products, I get the following error on top of the Error 1606 which says Compile Error In Hidden Module: DISTMON. I get this when the product (Excel, Word, etc.) starts up and when it exits.
    Can somebody help me here? I've searched the KB and the only article I find is no solution; following its instructions didn't help a bit. I can't even install any AA updates (that I hope might solve the problem) because of the same installation error.
    Thanks.

    I get the same message whenever I try to install Adobe 8.1.0 (received from Adobe last week) on a new computer running Vista Ultimate. I have completed all the actions in MS KB 886549 to no avail. I also copied the complete Adobe folder from the CD to the Desktop and ran the install program and the .msi program as an Administrator and had the same results. I spent a little over a half hour yesterday on the phone with Tech Support and still have the same problem. A search on the error message on the Internet shows that there are a lot of other people having this same problem. I hope someone comes up with a solution soon or it is back to the old computer (XP with SP3 and Adobe 7).

  • Codepage problems with PlainHTTP Adapter since upgrade to PI 7.0

    Hello everybody,
    I have problems some codepage problems (UTF-8) since the upgrade to PI 7.0. The PlainHTTP Adapter doesn't sends a valid UTF-8 XML to a 3rd party system anymore. Before the upgarde, the scenario works and I didn't touched it.
    I found a workaround, by using the SOAP-Adapter (without SOAP Envelope) instead of the PlainHTTP. This works fine.
    The scneario is pretty simple. A R3 (4.6c) sends an IDoc to the XI. The XI sends the IDoc-XML via HTTP to a 3rd party system. The message itself isn't touched.
    Does anybody now this problem? I don't want to involve the AdapterEngine, so I want to get rid of the SOAP Adapter
    Thanks a lot,
    Thomas

    Yes, I use 'UTF-8' in the XML-Code.
    I also tried the ISO-8859-1, this also doesn't works
    Regards,
    Thomas
