Setting for "Rely on system fonts" does not work

Hello,
Some time ago I wrote a VBA function that would print a worksheet to pdf. It worked great. I reformatted my system, and now the code no longer works. When I run the routine, I receive the error message, "When you create a PostScript file, you must reply on system fonts and use document fonts. Please go to the printer properties, 'Adobe PDF Settings' page and turn OFF the option 'Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts."
I have changed this setting within the Adobe printer setting in Excel, I have changed it in both the 'Printing Preferences" and "Printer Properties" with the Devices and Printers Windows dialog, and I have confirmed that it is turned off in the binary registry key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\DevModePerUser\Adobe PDF". Also, I have applied the Acrobat 9.4.2 patch. Yet still I get the message when my code is executed....
There were a few changes between my system from before my reformatting. The common items were Windows7 64-bit, Adobe Acrobat 9. The changes were that I went from Microsoft Office 2010 64-bit to Office 2010 32-bit. Windows 7 SP1 is now installed. Also, both Acrobat and Office are installed on my internal "Data" drive, rather than the "C" drive where my operating system is installed.
Although I do not see an issue with code, since it worked for months, I have included it below (the printing code is at the end). Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Ok, I have given up the ghost on this problem. I found a MUCH better solution to the problem that I was having, that also has the side benift of processing far faster. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee834871(office.11).aspx for details. Basically, I am now using the VBA ExportAsFixedFormat method, rather than Distiller. Hope this helps.

  • Systems preferences does not work

    My Systems Preferences does not work, either reminders and messages... since Mavericks(10.9) Programs do not respond and Macbook air is not responding....  Help.....

    Well, you are certainly correct that the fact that the "wired" machines work sure doesn't rule out a faulty router....But that's why (as part of a process of elimination troubleshooting scheme) I hooked up my old Linksys Router, and got the same results. Now...What are the odds of 2 separate routers acting the same way? Especially when both worked fine on my TIPB and even on my MBP until a few months ago. Plus, my 12 year old son can pull a wireless signal from the router on his console games (xbox360, Wii, PS3) with no problem
    Believe me, my first thought was to go out and buy another router, but when I swapped routers and got the same problem, I began to look elsewhere, eventually coming here for help and knowledge.
    I did the SMC reset to no avail. I'm not sure about the stuff in System Configuration....By "pull" do you mean to delete all the files in this folder? Move them to a temporary folder? Should I just deal with the folders that have "IP" in the "bundle" file name?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Check for Rentals on Apple TV does not work

    I have rented many movies in the past using Apple TV. I have not had a problem until now, right after I just updated my Apple TV software to the latest software v6.0 (6646.65).
    Last night (9/28) I rented World War Z. Roughly 20 minutes into the movie, I stopped the move by hitting the menu button. This exited me from the movie and back to the movies rentals screen.  I then rented another movie only a few minutes after exiting the first. I had no problem renting the second movie as I did not exit the movie once the streaming started.
    A few hours later I went back to watch the move by selecting the movie.  The rental option was still availabe. By selecting to rent the movie again and then selecting "Rent and watch now", the system told me I had already rented the movie and I should go to Settings->Downloads->Check for Downloads.  This options does NOT exist in the settings menu; however, I found a similar option under iTunes Store->Check for Rentals.
    This "Check for Rentals" option does absolutely nothing - or it doesn't show anything if it is doing something behind the scenes.  It just shows the spinning lines. I waited all night for something to happen. I restarted my router and modem to make sure there was nothing wrong with networking. Again, I had just watched another movie all the way through with no problems. I sent Apple Support an email with my issue and they refunded my $4.99 for the movie rental.
    So, tonight (9/29), I still wanted to watch the movie and I wanted to see if it would work. I went to the movie, selected to rent the movie and it gave me an optionsaying that I had already rented the movie and asking me if I wanted to rent it again. I selected to rent it again.  I was able to watch the movie all the way through with no problem. 
    I ended the movie during the credits by hitting the menu button. I immediately went back to the movie to see if I could continue the movie since I should be able to watch this movie in the next 24 hours.  The same situation happened again. I was told I could not rent the movie again, but to go to Settings->Download->Check for downloads. The "Check for Rentals" is doing the same thing.
    So, my question is how do I fix this or is there even a fix for this situation?  If I can't watch a movie without the fear of exiting the movie for whatever reason and not be able to return to the rented movie, I will not continue to rent movies from Apple TV. I enjoy renting them through Apple TV, but I definitely have multiple options (i.e. XBox Live, PS Network/Amazon, Redbox, etc.).  I really want to understand why this is happening and if it's going to be fixed.
    Thank you for any feedback!

  • Western iso 8859-1 character set is gone, "other (including Western" does not work. Why did you take it out?

    Some websites need Western ISO 8859-1 character set to run properly and you have taken it away in favour of "other(including Western)", now the site does not work properly. Why did you take it out and can you please put it back.

    ISO-8859-1 and Windows-1252 should be equivalent. Can you provide an example of a page that doesn't display properly?
    If you have to manually select a character encoding to view the page correctly, then the site is broken and you should notify its owner that it needs be fixed. Websites specify the character encoding in one of two ways:
    * [http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/tutorial-char-enc/ Handling character encodings in HTML and CSS | W3C]
    # The ''Content-Type'' response header.
    # The ''meta'' tag in the page source.

    I am new to Adobe Cloud, received the invitation from Adobe, create my account and I am able to login to the web. When Attempted to download Photoshop desktop, I was asked for Name and Password, the name was populated but I have to enter the password. I am using the password I entered at registration but it does not work and the Installer does not run.

  • With HP update for Maverick my photosmart C309A does not work properly

    After the HP-update for Maverick my printer HP Photosmart C309A does not work correctly. The scan facility is gone and the printer "hangs" after one print. I had to reset the printer software from a backup and to disable the automatic installation facility on my IMac. Shortly, very very very nasty. I hope this is the way for Apple to change this update into a good one. There is no other way to communicate with Apple then through the Community. I wander if Yosemite gives the same problems with printers.

    You are welcome.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    Some people have solved this by restoring their previous driver from their backup.

  • HT2534 Why does my password change after it was set and then 10 min latter does not work

    Can you conirm why my login to Itune now does not work with any od the store purchase, I want to BUY but it does not work
    Do we have to have two password for the same email address Stor and Ituns?

    The same password should work whether it's authorising the account on your computer's iTunes, signing in to view the account, or buying/re-downloading items from the store with it. What happens when you try to buy something ? Have you tried signing out (Store > Sign Out menu option) and signing back in and seeing if it then works ?

  • Shortcut for downloads window in Safari does not work

    Hi everybody,
    My shortcut for downloads window in Safari (command-option-L) does not work anymore, when i press that combination of buttons, iTunes appears in my screen.
    Can i do something to bring back my shortcut?
    Santiago

    Ok...
    Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
    Quit Safari.
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. Try the keyboard shortcut for the Downloads window. If it didn't help, just move that .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
    Also, go to your Safari menu bar click Safari/Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset. Restart your Mac. That might help too.

  • How come my installed system font is not working???

    I installed a systemfont. It is working in al the other Adobe programs except in Adobe Muse. What van I do?

Basically they seem to be back peddling a little on one of the main selling features that they advertise to designers, not the the best response really, it is apparently a bug?

    Problem with fonts in Muse on a PC?
    May 16, 2012 4:08 AM
    I have created a site in Muse and everything is fine when the file is opened on my mac where it was created. My customer has brought a muse subscription as they wanted to maintain it in house, but they are on a PC. Muse was installed on the PC fine.
    I have now given them the Muse file and it opens up ok in the PC Muse version apart from copy in Myriad Pro Bold (I assume as it's not a standard system font, it uses a substitute). The body copy displays ok as it's just Myriad Pro and that seems to be a system font.
    So, they have purchased Myriad Pro Bold font and installed the font to their fonts library on the PC (WINDOWS 7), but Muse will still not recognise it when the Muse file opens and it also doesn't appear in the systems fonts list in Muse? Does anyone know how to import a font into Muse on a PC so that they can view the site without it using a substitute font for Myriad Pro Bold?

    Does the new font appear in any other program on their computer? The font should appear as "Myriad Pro". Then they would need to select the bold option on Muse's toolbar. Beware that Myriad will be rendered as an image, not live text. This will hurt the web site in search results. Consider using either a Typekit font or one of the 'web safe' fonts for maximum visibility of your client's site. There's no point in making a great site if nobody can find it.

    Yes, it appears in Word, which is why we couldn't figure out why it wouldn't at least appear in the system fonts section in muse? This bold version of the font is mainly used for navigation to control the look, so we chose that to use as a graphic, so I understand your point regarding searches, maybe the body copy can be altered to a more web friendly font, but this displays fine and appears in the menu as Myriad Pro, but it doesn't help us with the navigation display that we'd like to keep in bold and control the look of. Even with the font loaded in the library it dosen't appear as a sub weight of Myriad bold, so do you think we done something wrong to get Muse to recognise it is there, sorry I still don't understand why Muse hasnt added it to the system fonts library?

    Ok thanks, as I really need to address this issue for my customer, as I recommended that they buy a subscription to Muse to edit their website content in-house and one of the main selling features of Muse for them is that you can use any font and embed it into the website and it obviously isn't quite working on Muse for PC and for which they are now paying monthly. So can I report it somewhere asap, is there an area where you do this or do you log it as a bug now?

  • Sonata font does not work in MS word, windows 7

    I purchased and downloaded Sonata Std. from Adobe. I downloaded it and installed it. I want to use it in Microsoft Word (Office 2013) - Windows 7. When I open a Word document, the Sonata Std. font name appears in the font select window, but after I select it and go to the document to begin typing, it reverts back to some other standard font (Cambria or Times New Roman).
    It does not seem to work at all. This is very troubling, since I paid $30 for it.

    You need to install the custom keyboard layout that shipped with the font.

    You need to use the Character Palette (Edit > Special Characters). View = Roman, Category = Greek.
    Or activate the Greek keyboard layout in system prefs/international/input menu.
    In Unicode apps you normally use a palette or a keyboard layout to make such characters rather than just changing the font.
