Cambria not found using courier error invalidfont offendingcommand show

Are you are trying to print from an Office program (This is generally the case) to Adobe PDF and getting the following error?

%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%% Cambria not found, using Courier. %%[ Error: invalidfont; OffendingCommand: show ]%%

Stack: ()

%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

This is an issue where Adobe cannot find the Cambria font and defaults to Courier, but is still unable to print the PDF. Fortunately there is a very quick fix!

• Step 1: Open the document/publisher file you are trying to make into a PDF.
• Step 2: Select Print, but instead of printing, select «printer settings»
• Step 3: Under «Adobe Printer Settings» un-check the box that says «»Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts» (See below)
• Step 4: Print the document/publisher file and it will successfully print!

Цитата:

пробовал я печатать текст с лицензионным шрифтом из различных редакторов

Какая разница, из какого редактора печчатать? Ведь PDF генерирует драйвер виртуального принтера.

А всё-таки вопрос, при использовании OpenOffice 2.0 и функции «Export as PDF» тоже получался «левый» шрифт?

PostScript error: invalidfont

A PostScript error Invalidfont can show up for a number of reasons but such errors are obviously always font related.

• Invalidfont errors can occur when a file contains an invalid font name or dictionary or a corrupted or improperly formed font dictionary.
• When a file containing recent types of fonts (like OpenType fonts) is sent to older RIPs, this can also lead to ‘invalidfont’ errors.

Solutions

If you are printing from Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, install the 10.6.7 update. It resolves ‘invalidfont’ errors when printing to PostScript printers.

To avoid problems with corrupted fonts, replace or reinstall the font on the RIP and/or computer. You could also try to print with the option ‘Download As SoftFont’ enabled in the printer driver.

Xerox recommends the following if you run into this problem with one of their devices:

• Use the Print As Image feature in Adobe Acrobat or Reader
• Reinstall the PostScript Print Driver or Install the PCL Print Driver

Older versions of Harlequin’s ScriptWorks software as well as a few Adobe PostScript-based RIPs that were not properly configured by Adobe’s OEMs cannot handle PDF files that contain Type1-based OpenType fonts (Type 1 fonts with CID double-byte encoding). Such encodings will cause an ‘invalidfont’ error on the RIP. Besides not using such fonts, there are two possible solutions for this problem:

1. Upgrade the RIP.
2. Try creating the print file or PDF file in another fashion. For Indesign for example, you should use Acrobat Distiller instead of exporting to PDF from within InDesign itself.

For a PostScript error ‘invalidfont offending command findfont’: check the page on the findfont operator.

For a PostScript error ‘invalidfont offending command awidthshow’: check the page on the awidthshow operator.

PostScript fonts are small PostScript programs and a rich source of errors. Unfortunately, all problems in the fonts are lumped together by the interpreter as an /invalidfont error. Usually, one has to decrypt the font to determine the exact cause of the error.

that awesome., helpfull for me in acrobat X

I get the error when attempting to save (print) webpages as PDF using Acrobat Pro 9. Got around the problem by
– First printing the webpage into a Microsoft XPS file, then
– Print the XPS file into a PDF. (I send these webpage images to a variety of folks and XPS is not always recognized… but PDF is).

Hope this helps somebody.

I have now a problem with a ps file on a Xerox mono printer.
It shows fine with HP Laser jet, but with Xerox mono it gives :

%%[Error: invalidfont; OffendingCommand:definefont.

I mention that the ps file contains cff fonts. Should I blame the printer for not supporting cff fonts, or am I missing something?

Had this error with Illustrator and “Save a Copy” > Adobe PDF. And then printing the document with Mac’s “Preview” application

Two ways to fix it:
A) When saving the PDF, untick “Optimize for Fast Web View”
or
B) Print the (buggy) PDF document with Adobe Acrobat

I found this error trying to print PDF’s on a Mac using Preview, the fix was use Adobe Reader instead

Daguy,
thank you very much – that fixex it for me. Would you recommend making Adobe the default instead of Preview?

This solution works to me

I tried this solution, it did not work

If you change your PostScript Output configuration from the default “speed” to “portability” the problem will go away.

No PDF file produced (Font Problem) [closed]

The question is out of scope for this site. The answer to this question requires either advice from Wolfram support or the services of a professional consultant.

Closed 6 years ago .

When I want to export my notebook as a PDF document, I get the following error messages from Adobe Standard 11, which I use as PDF «printer»:

MathematicaMono-Bold not found, using Courier.

MathematicaMono not found, using Courier.

%%[ Error: invalidfont; OffendingCommand: show ]%%

%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

What’s wrong there? How to overcome the situation?

I remeber that I had similar problems earlier when using some other PDF-cration mechanism. I new, the remedy there was to tell teh PDF printing tool to include all fonts which are used.

Is this another instance of this type?

How to circumvent the problem: follow these hints to use Save as and select there .pdf: see https://reference.wolfram.com/language/howto/ExportToPDF.html

According to what it shows on the screen, it goes through some printing process. And unfortunately there is a programming glitch in Mathematica: It will only export the pages selected in your last printing, if you did not print everything!

So beware to select Print all pages instead of some range of pages before starting to save as *.pdf.

I have to admit that this is not the answer to my two questions above

What is Wrong here? and

Is this another instance of this type (of not including special fonts, if necessary) ?

I hope the answer helps despite this objection.

%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

Chosen solution

What printing driver are you using to print to PDF. Firefox doesn’t have any built-in printer to print a page to PDF.

I use CutePDF if you are interested. It is free.
