benwiggy Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Here's a page ("Good PDF.pdf") exported as PDF from Dorico, music notation software. It uses the Qt framework for its PDF generation. Designer imports it almost reliably (let's forget about ligatures for the moment). However, if I re-save the PDF in Preview (or other PDFKit processes), the import goes completely crazy. ("Bad PDF.pdf") Interestingly, an EPS of the Bad PDF (still with embedded fonts) imports perfectly, as outlines. Converting the EPS back to PDF yields the same crazy results.

Staff Sean P Posted August 5, 2020 Staff Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi Benwiggy, Thanks for the files. Not entirely sure what is going on here, I'll get it passed on to development to be looked at. Thanks for letting us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
