What's up with the fat characters in my PDF? (I and L)

Outlined type in illustrator (CS 1) exported to PDF and then combined (2 pages) in Acrobat makes my resultant file have "FAT" characters, namely the I and Ls, respectively. Acrobat 6.0.2 professional, Illustrator CS 1. HELP!

Guys,
this issue has just come to light for me in the last couple days.
Here is what I believe is happening:
Some outlined text or even graphics that are nice even rectangles in illustrator are changed to stroked lines in Acrobat. And only in Acrobat from what I've seen.
I found this out by digging for a while in Acrobat, and discovering View > Wireframe!!!!!
Try this with your files, and you'll see exactly which characters and objects are being affected. The biggest news to me from my customer, and the reason I've dug into this SO tenaciously, was that IT WILL SHOW UP ON THE PRINTED PIECE!!!!!!!!!
So, far I've found this to be true only when the pdf file is printed from Acrobat. The stroked line weights are imperfectly generated by Acrobat, and apparently subject to interpretation by the DPI of the printer used!!
If your client takes the file back into illustrator, it will print fine, view fine even in Outline mode, and continue to give us that warm safe feeling convert to outlines has always given us in the past.
TAKE NOTE ADOBE, YOU NEED TO INFORM USERS AS TO WHY ACROBAT DOES THIS!!
(Steve Ð hinting?... outlined text is vector art, and unless you create it in Corel Draw, it is scalable to ANY size without degredation. Make sure you know what your talking about before you condemn a valid and often necessary feature!)

  • Ok what is up with the iPhone 5, went to verizon today and they told me not to buy one

    went to verizon store today to replace my iphone 4 with a 5 and they told me dont buy one they are really bad and you will be unhappy, what is up with that?

    What's up is that the Verizon sales rep either doesn't know what he/she is talking about, has misinformation and has formed an incorrect opinion based on that, or quite possibily is getting a bonus or other pressure to sell other, less popular phones that they have too many of. Many millions of people are very happy with their iPhone 5s.

    Likely because both occurred at the same time and/or you created another Admin user/ didn't allow the new Admin to admin the machine?
    Hold c and boot off your Snow Leopard install disk and second screen in under the Utilities menu is Reset Password.
    There is also a Single User mode (caution root user!) way to reset passwords on each account.

  • I have no idea what to do with the payments for stuff I bought on iTunes.

    Ok I had a card from a rebate atatched to the account and it has just expired. Now itunes wants me to pay from a different card for the things I bought in the week before it expired. I had the amount needed to pay for what i bought on the rebate card and bought my last thing before the card expired because i thought it would be stupid to let the money go without actually using it. I was looking today (it expired overnight) at itunes and now its saying i need to pay for them because the have not been pasyed for yet or something like that and i need to update the billing adress but i cant and dont want to one because i dont want to pay for something i had already had the money to pay for and they didnt charge me on it or something and 2 because i dont have another card to use bc i do not have a credit or checking or any card bc other than the rebate card i only have cash. sorry my question is so long but thank you for all the help you people can give me. ps i cant even get a card bc im 15

    The rebate card that my mom let me use was after they had bought a new phone and try had let me have what was left on it 7.92 and it counted as a visa credit card so I could use it to activate my account the problem is that I bought the stuff before it expired and it is now expired and it's sayin I still need to pay for what I bought with the old card and I don't want to pay twice for the same things that's just stupid I'm goin to get a gift card for the lowest amount so I can still get the free stuff but I don't think I should be responsible to pay for something thy I bought with a card that had the money on it for them to charge bc they debt send out the bill to them when I got the stuff bc there is stuff on it for like Monday saying I need to pay for it when the card didn't even expire till Thursday night

    Hey aries35,
    I found the following that goes over troubleshooting the same issue for the iPhone. I know you have an iPad, but the steps should still apply:
    Perform the following steps:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

    5
    java.io.IOException: Address already in use: Cannot bind 2
    which means there is error in :
    mgr.initialize(localAddr);
    mgr.addTarget(destAddr);
    But i don't know what's wrong with the code,
    can any one help me?

    I do not find any problem using the same ports for local and destination address with several unicasts. My problems are others.
    But note that the error is even at constructing the localAddress, I mean before trying the destinationAddress. Thus the reason cannot be the former is already in use. In fact I think the later belongs to a remote hosts. Likely, it is trying to access the destinationAddress through the localAddress, but this has not been constructed properly.

    Léon Hoeneveld's response works for me.  You will need to download a tool that allows you to edit the WSDL and reorder the values. 
    I've used a freeware tool like notepad++  collapsed all the levels and opened up the <wsdl:definitions xmlns:wsdl... segment and reordered the subgroups beneath it accordingly.

    You wouldn't want bad people to send you spam messages for the rest of your life, eh?
    Moderator Advice:
    If this is the same E2900 that you have mentioned in every one of your other forum posts, then it would seem you need to contact Technical Support and open a proper support request. These forums are NOT techsupport and that system seems so poorly configured that it needs deep analysis. Such investigation cannot be done by using an online forum.
    The immediate solution is to log on to the SC of that box and power it down, then boot it back up. At least it will be running after that.

    In other words, you have set a declaring of a Circle, but it has not been created in memory yet.

  • Any guess as to what's wrong with the display? Glows but no image.

    Helping a friend with the A1226 (15 inch Macbook pro). LCD is lit (glows), but a few light lines/bars on left side, no real image at all that I can see. Works fine on my external display. I removed the top case, and played with the connections a little to no avail. Techs said $350 to fix, based on prices I see on EBAY for displays, might be a good deal but not sure if that's a starting at $350. I would hate to get something and find out it's not the display though.
    Message was edited by: FTJoe

    Since the external display works without issue, it's more likely to be a problem with the internal display or possibly its cables and connections and not a graphics chip problem.
    The LVDS cable is what carries video data, so you want to have a good look at it, checking both for physical damage and to see that it is well seated. Do the same with the inverter cable.
    You can probably find a replacement LVDS cable:
    http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Pro-15-Inch-Models-A1226-A1260-Displ ay-Data-Cable/IF185-133
    It seems to be sold out at the moment, but it may be available from a different source or later on from ifixit. The cable is much less expensive than the display, and may be worth a try.
    Good luck!
