I created a PDF file using a non-CID CFF OpenType font (namely GFSDidot.otf) with font subsetting enabled. The PDF is created without errors and it is displayed correctly when using Adobe Reader 7.x. But when using Adobe Reader 8.1 text based on the OpenType subset font is not displayed anymore, although Adobe Reader does not show an error message. Interestingly the characters seem to be there somehow since it is possible to mark the blank area where the text should be displayed and to copy the text to an editor. But the text is not rendered neither on screen nor when printed.
If subsetting is turned off for the OpenType font and the complete font is embedded, then Adobe Reader 8.1 renders the text correctly on screen. Has someone an idea what's causing this behaviour? What has to be done that OpenType font subsets are handled correctly by Adobe Reader 8.1? Is information missing in the generated CFF font subset? Or is additional information needed in any PDF dictionary? Regards, Ulrich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
