Font Problems

Avoid problems with fonts. Send your printer the fonts. Avoid problems with fonts. Send your printer the fonts. In fact, it is wise to get into the habit of "sending all fonts, all the time." PC and MAC fonts are not compatible. Therefore, when working in a PC format, convert all fonts to outlines or curves.

If you are PC based and working in a program that does not allow you to convert the fonts to outlines, your printer may end up having to substitute fonts. Supplying MAC fonts is strongly recommended. Due to slight variations in fonts (kerning, baseline, etc) substituting fonts may slightly change the layout.
