That is great, Lin. It would be good if they fix this issue!

It is not clear where it is occurring. Although I suspect it is in Acrobat Pro, 
since I am not generating a new file from FrameMaker - just combining other PDF 
files containing Source Sans Pro with file size reduction - each of which 
independently is fine.

Subject: Re: [Framers] Weird spacing in PDF output

For those who may (or may not) be interested, I tried creating a PDF from the 
same TOC file after substituting different fonts in. The PDF generated from the 
TOCs using either Open Sans or Calibri were even WORSE than the one created 
using Source Sans Pro. However, the one generated from a TOC using ARIAL as the 
font generated perfectly. It must be some interaction between the font and the 
PDF engine.

I had a coworker try to generate a PDF from the original TOC using the Source 
Sans Pro and he got the same result I did, so it is not just my machine having 
the issue. An Adobe developer contact me today about this and requested sample 
files, which I have sent. Here's hoping someone comes up with a clue on what is 
happening and why!
