Embedding fonts in pdf/a generation

Post by geba »

HI,
i am using your PDF Converter on a word document(Office 2007) that i created with all fonts on my computer. I would like to generate a pdf/a file. With the file generated by amyuni i have verifyed it with adocbe acrobat 9 Pro extended and the result not is conform because they are problems with some fonts.
Than i used SetParamStr for total embedding of that fonts and it works nice.
But i had a problem on font "Lucida Sans Typewriter" : if i add this font i got an error on dll execution.

This is my options for generate pdf/a

Code: Select all

  
[b]  HPrinter = DriverInit(PdfPrinterName)
    RetEnablePrinter = EnablePrinter(HPrinter, LicenseTo, LicenseKey)
    ret = SetFileNameOptions(HPrinter, NoPrompt + UseFileName + MultilingualSupport + 		EmbedFonts)
    ret = SetPrinterParamStr(HPrinter, "Fonts", "Calibri=2|Consolas=2|Algerian=2|Bauhaus 	93=2|Britannic Bold=2|Constantia=2|Harlow Solid Italic=2|Harrington=2|Lucida 	Bright=2|Playbill=2|Stencil=2|Vivaldi=2|Wide Latin=2")
    SetImageOptions HPrinter, NoDuplicates + Downsample + OutputPDFA8 + XmpMetaData
    SetResolution HPrinter, 600
    ret = SetDefaultFileName(HPrinter, PdfFileName)
    ret = SetDefaultConfig(HPrinter)
    InitializeDriverPDf = HPrinter[/b]
If i use
ret = SetPrinterParamStr(HPrinter, "Fonts","Lucida sans TypeWriter =2")
i got an error.

Can you help me?

Hello,

Which version of the PDF Converter are you using?

I tried converting a document containing the Lucida font to PDF while using PDFA settings and full font embedding and it works properly.

I used the latest version of the of the Converter3 .03e and I used the End User version so I didnt call the SetPrinterParamSTR fuctnion.

Thanks Joan,

i am using PDF Suite 3.0 with pdf converter 3.0.3.
I used setparamStr for full embedding of only fonts that caused error.
