Fonts by which Suits as a PDF exported from InDesign

I am looking for a solution to some fonts display incorrectly in a PDF file when they look fine in InDesign.

I'm on Mac OSX, Acrobat 10.1.13 and 10.1.11 (update did not help) and font book is my font manager.

Fonts are not lacking in InDesign and the control panel fonts shows them as installed. But the problem fonts seem to miss in the properties of Acrobat/Fonts tab until I have install with the font book. They all show as embedded subset.

For example, it is a page of InDesign (ignore the contours of the block):

Here's a PDF of screen capture:

Screen Shot 2014-12-22 at 4.32.52 PM.png

The police is Carta (the boxes), but of other fonts substituted a font serif for other text as well.

I can't recreate the circumstances since I have now installed the fonts that were incorrectly. I guess that InDesign can locate and display fonts in the working folder, but can't Acrobat.

It doesn't seem to be any warnings there is a police problem. Is there a foolproof way to find out if a font is being overridden in Acrobat?

In fact, there is no such set of privileges as Overview of privileges in terms of integration. TrueType and OpenType fonts is to allow No incorporation (police cannot be embedded in a PDF, EPS file or ePUB in any circumstance), Preview and print incorporation (the police may be incorporated, but only for display purposes and printing - such text in the PDF file cannot be edited) or installable embedding (police can be installed later somewhere else).

When you export a PDF from InDesign, if the font used in the InDesign document contains at least Preview and integrating printing privileges, it will be incorporated into the PDF file. Otherwise, you will get probably a warning to export InDesign, but also a PDF file which does not display correctly unless you have these fonts actually installed on the computer of the recipient of the PDF file system.

The way to check regarding the font is well embedded in a PDF file is to open the file in Acrobat, press the Command D, then click on fonts at the top of the dialog box. Each policy referenced in the PDF file is listed. If the police is incorporated, it says either embedded or subset incorporated with the name of the font. If the police is not incorporated, it will also tell you what the font is used for display, perhaps the same font, accessed from your installed fonts or perhaps a substitution font.

  • Quality PDF export from InDesign and Photoshop problems

    Hello.

    I have problems exporting my InDesign files to PDF and keeping the Res. And it's not only images (I understand on the CIO) is the guy over there too.

    I exported as preset high quality printing - this is false. Are there other settings to make sure the PDF export retains the quality of high resolution and clarity?

    At the time of high resolution when I export jpeg or eps but not PDF.

    I also noticed the same problem when I export to PDF from Photoshop.

    I really need to create interactive and high quality print PDF of my InDesign files.

    Please can you advise.

    Thank you

    Sounds like it might be that the setting resolution in Acrobat is not corresponding to the screen.

  • PDF exported from InDesign background missing when open in Illustrator

    Hello, I have a bit of a frustrating problem.

    I'm working on the graphics for a large project, and I need to get some of my InDesign files in Illustrator (they are two CS5) for our printer.

    I would have normally designed them in Illustrator, but my graphics are in InDesign and we just found out once we started on production, it needs to HAVE and needs our trim road put in place for our irregular forms.

    For MOST documents, its fairly easy summer (export in PDF format > open in illustrator and making a cut path > save as HAVE) However, I have this file which makes me lose my mind.

    When I export to PDF, it opens perfectly and seems normal in acrobat, and I also see in the preview as well. The background appears and everything. However when I opened the PDF in illustrator it completely loses the background. I noticed this before a few graphics, but I assumed it was because they had gradients, drop shadows and transparencies and all that. This file has degraded anything weird with the exception of a background of gray.

    Help? I included a few screenshots of what is happening in the hope that you guys can help solve.

    So, we are here to register, and then open it in Acrobat to check things.

    Now, here's what happens when I open it in Illustrator:

    Bob, in this case I think that demand is having it to Illy, because the printing device may be a cutting plotter in a sign shop.

    It seems simple enough that you could easily copy and paste shapes in Illustrator and then redefine the type within a few minutes...

  • Export from InDesign to PDF and the PDF file last updated is greater than one month and not easily print on letter paper is PDF presets?

    Hello

    I export from InDesign to PDF page is larger in the PDF file, and others I exported. This is because of the present PDF? One of the project managers is not able to print on 8.5 "x 11", but the InDesign document presets are the same as before. I wish I could download PDFs to show, but the newly exported PDF is greater than the version I created a month ago. I created a PDF file and the newly updated PDF file is almost un.5 inch wider with the export presets even. Any thoughts?

    I suspect the project manager has his copy of Reader/Acrobat simply set to print full size, rather than "Worthy" (assuming that the size of InDesign pages is truly 8.5 x 11).

    .. the newly updated PDF file is almost un.5 inch wider with the same export presets.

    This has nothing to do with export presets. How did determine you this difference of half inch?

  • The letters simple stall in PDF files exported from Indesign CS

    We have problems of police in some advertisements of our magazine which has proved very expensive last month. First, let me describe the workflow.

    We have designed an ad in Indesign CS and then exported using the setting of the press in the Indesign PDF export option. Here the announcement looked and printed correctly. The announcement was then placed in another Indesign file for the layout of one of our magazines. Here the announcement seemed still fine on the screen and when printing out of Indesign. This next step is where the police problem.

    When we export the final review press ready file Indesign, PDF press setting in Indesign, simple letters in these ads issue of abandonment. For example all Ds "in the full announcement will be absent. So a sentence to the announcement that read "dirt is dark" will read "irt is Ark."

    I wonder if anyone else has had this problem to occur and if they have a solution. The only thing I can think is in compression settings there is an option to compress text and line art. Let's try to clear this check box to see if that solves the problem.

    Thanks for your help,

    Hervé.

    As Bob said, it was a known problem. If I remember, the answer is to embed the entire police in each ad, rather than wait for the final release, but I'm not dead certain that it makes a difference. The problem was that the ID used only the subset of first she is watching for any font.

  • The "Save as pdf" button from InDesign

    Is it possible to do a "Save as pdf" button in InDesign?

    "Execute a menu item" and "Run a JavaScript" are two types of actions that you can specify in Acrobat but no InDesign. There are several others.

  • How can I find and remove an unused police integrated into PDF exported from a book?

    The police (Myriad Pro) was the [standard paragraph] police original in indd files, but I need to replace it with another font (approved).

    MP than do find in any of the indd files in the book.

    It is not used (that I can find) in it HAVE files or PSD files placed in the indd files.

    Where I could hide the MP? It always shows by default when I open the files HAVE, so she is somehow stored in the same if files HAVE unused and embedded in the PDF file as a result of that?

    Experence sometimes "Enter/return" between a paragraph and the following can keep a former police / style or pt size which can sometimes be difficult to find and or delete them.

  • Single Page PDF export in InDesign?

    We just started sending only our catalogs directly to the printer, rather than sending them through a pre-press House. We have fixed most of the snags, but the biggest pain now export a PDF file to send to the printer. Right now, we must go on a page at once - open the spread, export one page, the other page to export, close it and move on to the next. Needless to say, that takes some time.

    Can I export a PDF from the book file. This part is pretty simple. But what I'd like is to export my address book file and wind upward with a PDF split into individual pages, which I could then download it just to the printer. I know I could export the PDF book, and then open the book in Acrobat format and break a page at a time, but it's almost too prone to mistakes like the longest.

    I think a script customized for Acrobat can do this work for me, but I don't know.

    If anyone knows how to make this work, it could save us a ton of time.

    You don't need a script. Export the entire PDF file. Open in Acrobat Pro and use the command extract pages.

  • Don't open a PDF exported from Adobe InDesign.

    There is a file created by Adobe InDesign CS6. Damaged file and does not open in the Aboriginal program. The file extension *.indd.

    The file threw on the CD a few months. After working with her I exported in PDF format. And then all of a sudden you need to modify the original file. And it does not open.

    Now when I try to open wrote: "... file is damaged (error code: 4).

    At the same time without problems is copied everywhere.

    Is it possible to recover, even with the loss of part of the data?

  • A pdf file exported from InDesign, but displays various error messages when the same file is downloaded on the same laptop from the company's Web site

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with a pdf file created for my business. It exports without problems and displays correctly on my computer, but once it is transferred to the Web site and you download from here, pages randomly displayed not correctly, images and pieces of text go missing and different "internal error" messages pop up, such as:

    "An internal error has occurred."

    "There is an error on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the pdf document to correct the problem.

    "Failed to retrieve the embedded police"LICYDR + GaramondMT". Some characters may not display or print correctly.
    "Insufficient for an image.

    And when I close the pdf file it asks if I want to save even if I did not bring any changes to the document. It seems that everyone has problems with pages and receive different error messages. It is exported using the smallest file size preset in InDesign. Any idea what could be the cause? Any help would be greatly appreciated!


    Thank you

    One thing to check is if BINARY is used in the FTP client. If a client FTP ASCII is used, it may corrupt PDF files.

    Here's another thing to check yourself for you. Find the size in bytes of your original PDF. Now, look at the size of the uploaded file in bytes. Are they the same? If this is not the case, ask your colleague the size in bytes of the PDF file on the server. Is this the same as the original, or bad file?

  • Print a PDF export in InDesign

    I exported a few screen of InDesign documents to PDF. When I print documents, some parts cut (upper part of the article or at the bottom), but it is still possible on paper. I ' ts as the printer decides not to print the sections. I print on paper 5x7inch and all my documents show their sizes as 5x7inches.

    Thank you all for the help... I think that I understand the problem... my documents can be formatted as borderless, but default of my printer can not. Sorry for the answer Yes to ensure response to what the printer can print without margins. I didn't know that it had to do with the settings of the printers! I thought it was just to make sure that documents accept a margin of 0 (zero)! I apologize for all the time wasted on this issue, but I am very grateful and thankful for your help!
