[Framers] Save as PDF - Do not rely on System Fonts

[Orly Zimmerman]

HI All,
Allison's recent question - about the old SetPrint reminded me of a problem I currently have. I'm running FM2020 (from the Adobe Technical Suite) on a new HP EliteBook 84 G6 (Intel core i5-8265U @1.6GHz<mailto:i5 at 1.6GHz>) with 8GB of installed RAM. No problems with processing times or open pod issues. FM works fine, thank goodness.

My problem:
I use Kelson family fonts for my cover/back pages. These fonts, for some reason, don't embed in the file.
When I quickly want to create a PDF, I'll use the "Save as PDF" File option.
Invariably, the PDF conversion process (via Distiller) gets flushed.
To solve the problem, I need to uncheck an option "Do not rely on system fonts" which can be found only in the Adobe Print settings.
And I need to reset this each time I restart FM.
Any ideas on how to avoid this slightly annoying problem.

Many thanks! And have a great week,
Orly




>>Hi Alison,

>>

>>FrameMaker creates PDF files via Save As PDF with its own engine.

>>The printer is not involved. This works very well.

>>There can be requirements that you create the PDF via Distiller, but this is also automated. You can still use Save As PDF.

>>

>>You do not need to print to a PostScript file.

>>SetPrint cannot be installed (FM 2020 is 64 bit) and is not needed.

>>There isn't any headless Distiller in FM 2020.

>>Best regards
