Question with dwg to pdf.pc3 and export to pdf


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am using AutoCAD 2010 LT, XP pro SP3, with all updates.

 

I have used and continue to use cutepdf for my printing to pdf needs and I am a big fan of this simple free pdf writer. I have also bought cutepdf pro for creating and editing pdf's which works well.

 

That being said, cutepdf does not allow batch printing which I am trying to implement.

 

I use times new roman and a Graphite font on architectural drawings. Using cutepdf the text and lines look great. When I use the dwg to pdf.pc3 file and the drawing openings in adobe I get an error message that Adobe can not find or create the font "times new roman PSMT" Then some lines of text are replaced with lines of dots.

 

This also happens with export to pdf, which I would like to use because of the availability of layer control.

 

What is times new roman PSMT, do I need to ind this font and load it?

What could be causing these results?

 

Thanks

I have downloaded and installed the font times new roman PSMT and restarted my computer. Adobe still cannot find or create times new roman PSMT.

 

ARG...I'm going home

It is definately a adobe issue. removed adobe and installed fox it and the text comes out great with no surprises. Haven't actually printed yet so we'll will see...but not till after the weekend.

If you open up DWG to PDF.pc3 and go to Custom Properties under Custom Properties, you can edit the font list to accept all the Times New Roman fonts. This solved the problem for me. Good luck.
