J. Johnson Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Since I updated my system to OS X 10.6.7 my preferred fonts have been just beastly in my existing files. They're smeared up and down the page, and generally make putting out decent looking drawings difficult. I've switched to other fonts for the time being, but I'd like my drawings to look the way they have! I don't think it's a VW thing from my reading elsewhere, but has anyone found an easy way to deal with it while Apple is coming up with a bug fix? Quote Link to comment
Benson Shaw Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I do not know if this will help, but did you try verifying the your fonts with the Mac OS Fontbook? Applications>Fontbook Then>File>Validate Fonts It might tell you that you have some duplicates, or problem fonts. -B Quote Link to comment

J. Johnson Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 I did try fixing everything with fontbook, but that didn't help. I did however find this temporary solution which seems to work for me. Read the thread and use at your own risk! https://discussions.apple.com/message/13374743#13374743 I hope this helps those with similar problems. Quote Link to comment
