Hmmm. It says, all fonts are embedded, but one: "FoS0". ??? Never knew I

The other thing is, I have my main font, Syntax, as Adobe Type 1 and as

Up to now, I've never had such problems with Scribus, even with older
versions. But you never should say never...

Yes, outline. Maybe including all paths would avoid such things? But it
will blow up the file, won't it.
