We have a few fonts (specifically DIN) that we use for our drawings that are becoming distorted when exported to PDF. The characters become squished to look tall and narrow with lots of space between each letter. This is occurring in all text including titleblocks as well as drawing labels.
Changing to a system font seems to fix this (tested with Helvetica). Unfortunately our title block was really designed around the DIN font, so changing the font would require a complete redesign of our titleblock.
The problem can be fixed by checking the "rasterize text" option in the export to PDF window, but this is really not ideal.
The font was working perfectly for us in VW 2017 and prior. Anybody else with font issues in 2018? Any possible solutions?
