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.
