Fonts
We recommend the use of Adobe Type 1 or Open Type fonts. Other font types can cause faulty appearance in prepress process.
Avoid font problems
If you make a PostScript file, include all the fonts that you use.
- Convert fonts in EPS files into paths.
- Don´t use so-called system fonts. They vary slightly in different operating systems and might cause erroneous word division in texts, even in PDF files.
- It is not recommended to use ”fast buttons” in software when changing a font to italics, bold, underlined, shaded or transparent. Changes made with fast buttons behave differently depending on fonts or RIP. To avoid these problems, always use genuine fonts.
