FM10 converting to italics

[Timothy DeWees]

Thanks Mike, I was able to correct the problem by adding a font file
"timr45w.ttf" to my fonts folder. I did notice the line you mentioned in the
maker.ini file, but wasn't sure why it worked with FM8 and not FM10. In any
case, I think having the right font file is better in the long run than
having it substitute. It was confusing because it turned out I had the Times
italic and bold fonts, but FM8 was substituting for the plain Times font. I
had never noticed it before. Anyway, problem solved, thanks.

Times is also one of the basic PostScript fonts built into PostScript
printers. If you can't find it installed, you may be able to locate it on
the installation disk of a PostScript printer.

You can also remap Times to Times New Roman in the [UnknownToKnowFontMap]
section of maker.ini. The following entry is there by default, but may have
gotten turned off:

Times, *, *, *=Times New Roman, *, *, *

Rebecca,

 

It does look now like it's a missing font issue. Our client still uses Times
which is an ancient font. Every time I upgrade something, whether frame, or
acrobat, or Windows, I get problems with this font being missing. I should
have thought of that right off. Looking at my FM8 maker.ini file, it's still
not clear to me how my FM8 was locating this font. I think I need to located
it on my old computer and install it in the normal location of my new
machine.
