True Type Doesn't Print

By Jimmy NY - usenet poster


I am using 9.1 on a G4 and installed AdobePS printer 8.7. I have done a clean install, rebuilt the desktop, zapped the PRAM and not a single true type font will print. When I used good ol' PsPrinter I had absolutely no problems.

True type fonts, as well as the postscript fonts are located in sets in Adobe Type Manager (4.6.1). They are in mixed sets such as scripts, decorative, etc. They are activated at will. The most used are on all the time.

I am using two different postscript printers and getting the same results from both printers.

I hate to appear the dummy, but what are non-apple systems extensions?

P.S. Thanks for all your help!

Cathy,
Were are your true type fonts located? How are they activated? Try
turning off any non-apple system extensions and then see what happens?
Can you connect your computer to a different postscript printer?
Perhaps your printer is defective?

I tried running the control test from Simple Text and selected "Font Inclusion All" and still didn't print my tt fonts.

With AdobePS 8.8, go to the PostScript Options panel of the Print window, and check the "Font Inclusion All" checkbox. Additionally, all the applications you named write their own PostScript independent of your printer driver. Run a control test printing from an application that does not produce its own PostScript. (Simpletext, for example). This will help you isolate if you have a driver issue or an application or printer issue.

I just installed the 8.8 driver and I still can't print tt fonts. I am having the trouble across the board in all applications: Freehand 9.0, PageMaker 7.0, QuarkXpress 4.1. I am using Adobe Type Manager 4.6.1 and Adobe Type Reunion 2.6. I use two printers: GCC Technologies XL 1208, as well as printing thru a fiery to a Canon 1000, same problem on both printers.

Cathy,
Try 8.7.3. I've no problem priniting ps or tt font. If you are still
having problems, please describe applications used, printer and how
the printer is connected to your computer.
