PEKA62 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 does not work, AFPhoto does not render the embedded fonts although they are there. :( I'm receiving pdf's from clients to be embedded in a Quark document, and AFP claims fonts are missing. Apple Preview and Photoshop 5 import the pdf correctly, also Quark XPress. If I import to AFP fonts are all Arial. Is this a known issue or is there an error in my workflow/machine setup?

Paul Bravery Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Hi PEKA62, Do you also have Adobe Illustrator? If so, have you tried opening the PDF in Illustrator? What happens to the fonts then? Opening a PDF in Affinity Photo is similar to opening in Illustrator, the fonts will be missing if you don't have them installed. I am away from my Mac now, so I can't check if this works, but try the 'Place' command for the PDF, this embeds the PDF into a layer which can be rasterised.

Staff MEB Posted October 18, 2015 Staff Share Posted October 18, 2015 Hi PEKA62, Currently Affinity Photo/Designer don't support embedded fonts. You must have the fonts installed to be able to edit/view them. Paul, Photoshop will render the PDF correctly with the text layers rasterised, but that doesn't work in Designer as far as i know, even embedding the PDF.
