FontFace Problem

Post by tmaatz »

Hello,

i use TextSettings.FontFace.Custom("...") to set a global font (RTF->PDF).
But since some weeks it will not work anymore with the Font "Gill Alt One MT" on many PCs (only on one is working).
If i use "Arial" or Comic Sans or other it works, but "Gill Alt One MT" get allways changed to "Calibri"
It is the same if the source rtf uses "Gill Alt One MT", after normal converting (without setting Custom), all Fonts like in RTF but "Gill Alt One MT" get changed to "Calibri"

When i use TextSettings.FontFace.Custom("a not existing Font here"); it uses "Calibri" too, reinstalling Font did not helped.

The Point ist, i did not changed the PDF Metamorphosis .Net Version, and currently on 1 PC it is working ...
I can use "Gill Alt One MT" in every other Application without problems (including PDF creation, for example with MS Word)

Hello

I'll try to help you.

May you give me this RTF file with Gill Alt One MT font inside?

forum@sautinsoft.com

I test it with new version of the sdk and, perhaps, we can fix it.

Thanks

Ok, finally it works on all PCs.

"i copied the Font Files direclty with commandline as Admin to C:\Windows\Fonts"
is the Solution, my Copy-script had some trouble on the other PCs and the Customer did not saw the Errormessage ..., now i copied it manually on this PCs
