Hi! 

I and others in our practice have recently updated to 2022. We use the font Heiti SC regular. This displays when in autocad but once PDFed using dwg to pdf. pc3 the text errors as in the below screenshot. The font is correctly installed on the system, it has been replaced, to check it is not corrupt, this had no impact. Solution welcome?! tried allsorts and had no luck so far. I am on Mac OS Monterey 12.2

Which PDF driver did you use and how is it set to handle/capture fonts?

[lauraQH6G3]

I used DWG To PDF.Pc3
Unsure what the second question means sorry

Hi @lauraQH6G3 ,

Try tu use "Convert all text to geometry"

Laura,

>>>>Heiti SC regular

Is it commercial font?

[pendean]

As a test only, does the visual aspect of those fonts improve if you select this option?

[lauraQH6G3]

Standard Mac Font which comes on the system

[lauraQH6G3]

Yes this is what I have been doing as a short term fix

Then I will check it on my side.

What macOS version do you have on your Mac?

I cannot reproduce this issue on macOS BigSur 11.6.3

 Have you installed >>>this<<< Update?

Can you share your drawing here?

[pendean]

Can you share your PDF with the odd-looking text here please?
A portion of your DWG with that same text in it would be nice too, if you can.

[lauraQH6G3]

Thank you I will try this

Sorry it was my fault.
But now I see that you have all the updates installed.

Hi @lauraQH6G3 ,

I tried to save PDF form your drawing and all text looks correct (see attached PDF).

As I wrote before, I have macOS Big Sur  on my Mac, maybe the case of incorrect font representation is macOS Monterey, but I'm not sure.

Please post screenshot of Print window at the moment when you save drawing to PDF.
