Annie2 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Hi. I am importing a map (which has text) into Designer, but the map uses some Univers fonts which are 'missing' as I don't have them installed. How can I find out what Designer has replaced them with? When I click on the text, the font box just shows "?Univers LT std". Or is there a way to maintain the integrity of the PDF fonts (as I won't need to edit them)?

I guess you would need software that would convert the text inside the PDF to curves. Affinity products don't handle embedded fonts well at the moment though I do gather this will change at some point.

Gear maker Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Annie, when I open a PDF in AD that has missing fonts I get a screen like below that shows what the fonts were and what they were replaced with. Don't you get that screen telling you the replacements? I would guess that seeing as my Univers has been replaced with Helvetica that might be a good starting point in your search.
