Hi, I am having a problem with a font (Nickainley) when exporting as a pdf. The font is uploaded everywhere & there are no pre flight warnings to alert me to a potential problem. When I export the file as a pdf the font changes - see below for before & after export! I have never had this happen before ~ Could anyone help me please??!

Could be worth a try to uncheck Subset Fonts hiding behind the More button in the export dialogue.

Hi Joachim, thanks for the suggestion - I have done this, but unfortunately it hasn't sorted the problem! Any other thoughts on how I could solve this?? Thanks!

As a workaround you could try to convert the text to curves, either with 1-click on export (> More), or in the Affinity layout document via "Convert to Curves" (which needs to be done for every affected text frame and makes text non-editable, so it might better be used in a copy of the document).

Based on the second image it looks like font cache corruption.
Try un-installing and re-installing the font.
Make sure you only have one version installed anywhere.
Do not install both the OTF and the TTF versions at the same time.

That font is super simple so there is not much to go wrong.
I tested exporting it to PDF without any problems.
