Anybody seen this before?

determined,

I ran the file through the Pitstop PDF X/4 PDF profile and it came up with some interesting info about the corrupt font widths. Not sure what exactly that means but it could maybe explain the issue you were having.

[determined]

That, and possibly the fact that I'm still running Acrobat 9.0

Thanks again for all the research, Joe. You da man  :wink:

[determined]

OK, so the plot thickens....I updated my Acrobat 9 to 9.2.0 (that was the only one available) and took the original file and flattened it.....NO SCREWED UP TYPE!!!  (Not that I will ever again try to "flatten" a file if I can help it....I will probably try to find another way around it now)   :tongue:

[Joe]

That's odd you only get the update to 9.2.0. Maybe check Adobe's download area and see if you can do the manual update. The lastest is 9.3.2.

[determined]

Yeah, I thought that was odd too

Until I upgraded to Snow Leopard, I didn't get any updates from Adobe for a while, I haven't upgraded to Acrobat 9 yet though either, but, maybe a possibility you can't utilize the 9.3.2 upgade without Snow Leopard?

Or Windows 7...

[Joe]

I'm running 9.3.2 here at work and we're running just plain old Leopard 10.5.8. I suppose it could be a PPC vs Intel CPU thing though. Maybe different updates depending on the CPU.

Edit: Oops, can't be that. Prepress managers mac is a quad core PPC running Leopard 10.5.8 with Acrobat 9.3.2.

Hmmm....

[Grimace]

like I said, not running 9, just throwing stuff out there. The typing makes me look busy when folks walk by here at work, oops, past 3:30! Time to go!

Acrobat 9 Pro 9.3.2    OSX 10.4.11   PPC.   Slo-o-ow...but, nevertheless.   :laugh:

[determined]

Nope, just gotta update to 9.2.0 first, then you can update to 9.3.2 (gonna do that today)....

Still amazed that just an update would solve that problem....(even the fact that pitstop screwed it up amazes me).....

[Joe]

And sometimes trying to stay updated to the latest version will get you too. No winning in prepress. :sad:
