This is not a PDFimport issue. When you import a PDF it will extract the text and retain the font formatting (i.e. font name, size, effects, colour). If the font is not installed on your PC it will be replaced by some other font and the characters may look odd if the font is too different. In the case of Musescore, the font is internal to the program and is embedded in the PDF (which explains why the PDF looks good). If you look at the document properties you will notice that MScore120 and MScore20 were embedded. If you could get these exact fonts your PDFimport would look better (I wont say perfect because that is highly unlikely :) ) Bottom line: if the font is embedded in the PDF and you do not have the same font installed on your PC, importing from PDF will produce a Draw document with some font differences. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Fw-Re-libreoffice-users-PDF-Import-LibreOffice-extension-for-importing-PDF-documents-pdfimport-tp3503557p3504370.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
