Description behrends 2003-02-19 00:00:49 UTC 
When using Postscript Type 1 fonts, the file resulting from "Export as PDF" does
not embed them, or doesn't embed them correctly. Any viewer (acroread, xpdf, gs)
prints error messages instead of displaying the page. The same problem does not
occur with TrueType fonts.

cp->pl: problem with encoding != latin1 ? I think we need to adress
this asap after basetech01 is in dry towels
Comment 3 christof.pintaske 2003-02-19 08:58:09 UTC 
pushed on pl's stack
Comment 4 michael.bemmer 2003-02-19 09:16:28 UTC 
Set to "confirmed", because this bug obviously occurs.
Comment 5 philipp.lohmann 2003-02-20 14:49:19 UTC 
will fix
Comment 6 philipp.lohmann 2003-02-20 18:17:32 UTC 
It may be an encoding problem, then again it may be something else.
Where can one get ZurichMT-Roman from ? The MT ending sounds like
MonoType ? I don't think i'll see what happened here purely from the
PDF file (which is post mortem).
Comment 7 behrends 2003-02-21 02:41:04 UTC 
Zurich is Bitstream's Univers clone (which I can't include for
copyright reasons), but the bug occurs with any Type 1 font that I
tried. I'll attach a complete set of files (.sxw, .pdf, .pfb, .afm)
using the Insula font from http://www.apostrophiclab.com/.

Comment 9 philipp.lohmann 2003-02-21 11:32:43 UTC 
There was a "slight misinterpretation" about binary and ascii hex data
inside type1 fonts :-( ; namely the identification which of both is
present worked only in special cases. This is fixed now in CWS vcl06
Comment 10 philipp.lohmann 2003-03-11 11:03:09 UTC 
pl->hi: fixed in CWS vcl06
Comment 11 Martin Hollmichel 2003-03-12 13:03:53 UTC 
set traget to beta2
Comment 12 h.ilter 2003-03-12 15:05:08 UTC 
Fixed
Comment 13 h.ilter 2003-03-12 15:07:04 UTC 
Verified with 644m6_8563 (CWS:VCL06) = ok
Comment 14 michael.bemmer 2003-03-13 11:13:23 UTC 
As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved
<wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for details.
