Matthew Giampapa Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Joe, Do you have the same version of the font installed on both machines? It sounds as if you have a TrueType font on the working machine, and a Bitmap font on the Imac. Matthew GiampapaNNA Technical Support Quote Link to comment
Joe Newell Posted May 14, 2002 Author Share Posted May 14, 2002 I don't know what I have. Icopied over all the fonts from the machine that works to the machine that doesn't . I have further found that it is Univers fonts that cause the problem, however it is not all the Univers fonts. Univers condensed for instance has a problem while Univers Condensed italic does not. All the Italicized text is ok and all the straight up and down stuff is screwy. Quote Link to comment
Joe Newell Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 That is new problems with fonts, not problems with new fonts... On a new 600Mhz Imac running VW 8.5.2 and OS 9.2.2 , I can't figure out how to get the text to appear unaliased, that is without the pixellated look. I had the same problem on another machine and fixed it by upgrading the Adobe Type Manager to 4.6 and restarting the machine. In this case I already have 4.6 installed and it is running but no joy. Also on the other machine, The text would print fine and smooth, It was only ragged on the screen. On the Imac the text prints jagged. Since I am trying to get my boss up and running on VW on the Imac it is most critical that I get this fixed. Are there any suggestions out there?? Thanks Quote Link to comment
Joe Newell Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 one thing I forgot to add. I created a drawing on my computer which works fine and sent it to the imac where the font got screwed up. I created a drawing on the imac, noted the screwy font and sent it back to my machine where it was fine. Quote Link to comment
