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 · ‎02-10-2022

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

Standard Mac Font which comes on the system

lauraQH6G3 · ‎02-10-2022

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

Then I will check it on my side.

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.

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.
