Hi;
I'm currently testing GdViewer for use within a VFP6 application. No problems building it into the app. However, many of our PDFs are being rendered with missing type objects. Only Truetype fonts seem to work; none of the Postscript (Type 1) or OpenType fonts are displayed at all.

Is this a known problem? Is there a work-around?

Hi;
I have done some more testing on this problem. I only have trouble viewing Type 1 fonts, when the PDF is created using InDesign CS "Export to PDF" function. This uses the Acrobat 6.0 library to produce an untagged, unoptimized, PDF version 1.3 file. When opened in GdViewer, everything is fine except any Type 1 fonts are missing.
All of our production PDFs are of this kind, so it is a big problem. Any suggestions?
