Hi I've been following the fonts embedding issue with PDF's (ie when the font contains too high a number of glyphs) (in fact I reported on the issue, sorry I cant find the Bug Ref Number).
But I was under the impression that this was fixed in 1.3.3.9 CVS or 1.3.4 But using Malex's latest builds 1.3.3.9 (3/May 2007), & 1.3.4 (27 May 2007) of Ubuntu packages, I am still getting issues where many usual fonts can't be embedded into PDF's, only outlined. IE Arial Regular is embedded ok, Times New Roman Regular won't embed and Arial Bold won't embed. (These tests were made on the 1.3.4 version). These are very regularly used fonts, that will cause many users problems. Excellent PDF export is one of Scribus's best and well known features. I need to get proper font embedding working as I have Scribus files that the derived PDF's will go to the printers soon. Are there any workarounds or further information for this? -- Kind regards Julian Robbins Applications Engineer Q-par Angus Ltd Barons Cross Laboratories Leominster Herefordshire HR6 8RS UK Tel +44 (0) 1568 612138 Fax +44 (0) 1568 616373 Web www.q-par.com
