Hi All,
I'm having a font issue; I'm trying to use Garamond Premier Pro as my serif
font (to match my document font for a method book). It won't print the s
character. On testing, z printed incorrectly. I switched the font to Adobe
Garamond Pro and had similar issues; some characters wouldn't print
correctly. Could someone point me in the direction of a fix for this
problem?
