------- Additional comments from [email protected] Sat Nov 20 19:52:00 +0000 2010 ------- When using the PDF icon or "Export as PDF" approach with the "PDF/A-1a" option and the "Submit format PDF" option to be sure that all fonts are embedded in the PDF, Adobe Reader gives the following error message when I open the PDF: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'Formata Bold'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." The font show up as dots in the PDF. When I look at "Properties" in Reader, it says the following for the Formata Bold font: ("A" for Adobe) Formata Bold Type: Type 1 Encoding: Built in Actual Font: Unknown Same problems with Formata Regular. These are legitimate Adobe fonts that I've had for so long that they came on 3.5" floppies. I tried a simple two-line document, one line using Formata Regular and one using Formata Bold. I had the problem with both fonts. They show up as dots in the resulting PDF. Further problems: If I cut & past from the PDF file and drop the dots into an OO Writer document, they reappear as the text of the original Formata fonts, although the "regular" font is now bolder, but not quite as bold as the actual Bold version of the font. Also, looking at the windows for the font name and point size, the fonts that were just pasted back from Reader are slightly smaller in size than the original text (11.5 pts vs. 12 pts), and the names appear as follows: "Formata;Formata" (it should be "Formata Regular") "Formata;Formata Bold" (It should be "Formata Bold") I have many documents that use the Formata fonts, both Bold and Regular, so I don't want to have to edit all of them to use a different font. These fonts have worked fine with earlier versions of OO. They are legitimate fonts, from Adobe. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
