I can't not have the text as text when I open the PDFs I have on my machine. Do you have the fonts which are used in the PDF installed on your machine? Perhaps there is something unique about this particular PDF, does the same thing happen with others? Here is one which may include fonts you don't have This.pdf Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillieTh Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) No i mean that the text are vectors, if i open the PDF in acrobat pro it's correct. The font is Times Roman. This is the file (cv e-mail A5 2020) i'm talking about, it's a pdf made in Scribus (DTP program). cv_e-mail_A5_2020.pdf ps.

It is a function that is unlocked after a user has been a member for a certain amount of time (or, possibly, made a certain number of posts). But if/when you can, click on your name on the upper right of the forum page, and choose Profile. If the function is available then there will be an icon to let you upload a profile photo: Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

From what I can see in that PDF using Acrobat Reader, there is no actual text in the file. It says, for example, that no fonts are used. And the Save as Text function gives no output text. I think you will find that Acrobat Pro is performing OCR to reconstruct the text.
