Hi guys,
This is my first post here so please be gentle!
I've created a book for a roleplaying game and done all the layout work with Publisher using Corbel as the font for all Body text. There are also a couple of other text styles which then use Body (style) as the basis.
On exporting the PDF, everything looks absolutely fine.
The problem I have only occurs when I try something I know most of my buyers will want to do, which needs a little explanation.
Basically, the book is for a roleplaying game, and the Games Master will want to copy out some bits of information, character statistics as you can see above for example, for use at the table. The same also goes for Virtual Table Top software which allows online play of the game.
When I copy out the text from the PDF and paste into an editor (I've tried MS Word and Notepad) the numbers all turn into unrecognisable symbols.
When I copy the text directly from Publisher, it works just fine.
Also, when I change the Typography setting for figures from Lining to Default or No Change, the numbers show when pasted from the PDF but their position and size is altered in Publisher and it just doesn't look right. The image below is snipped from Publisher:
I've tried the various settings in export for fonts to no avail.
I really don't want to have to go back over 240 pages with a new font. Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Allan.
