TTF not plotting to pdf

Anonymous
Not applicable

In AutoCAD LT 2018 for Mac, when I "plot" to a .pdf, the true type font I've added does not display correctly.  It either disappears completely or changes to a different font and stacks on top of itself.  When I "Convert all text to geometry", it disappears.

Search for the option to include all fonts to the pdf - in your pdf driver.
I only use windows versions, hopefully there isn't a difference.

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi Stephen,

What font are you using?
I know that AutoCAD for Mac has issues with some 3-party TTF fonts.
Can you attach sample PDF which shows the problem?

Thanks for the help.  The font I'm trying to use is called pirulen.ttf.  The drawing and resulting .pdf are attached.

Thank you sir, that fixed it.  Apparently I didn't get the right file for the font. 

 

I really appreciate the help.
