walt.farrell Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Your file exports fine for me. However, you're using several fonts that I don't have, so it might be font-related. You can check that by clicking More in the Export dialog, and scrolling down to the bottom to the Embed Fonts option, which you can set to "Text as Curves". If that makes it work, then it is related to your fonts in some way. You could generate a log of the PDF export process, which might let you see more details of the issue and where it occurs: 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.

pcdlibrary Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 Font manager shows all fonts OK. I followed the logging instructions but did not find PDFlib.txt. Under "More," in the Export dialog, I don't see "Embed Fonts option" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under "More," in the Export dialog, The instructions for the logging do not talk about using the More option. I mentioned More as another diagnostic approach. While exporting your PDF, you can click More, then scroll down. Near the bottom you'll find the Embed Fonts option.
