Rotis* are Type1 fonts which I installed myself. I can use them fine within X, with Gimp, Inkscape, they display fine in Libreoffice, and exported PDFs show up fine in okular/evince etc. The problem with acrobat being unable to read the embedded font from a PDF file is specific to this font; if I export a PDF with another font (even Type1), acrobat can open the PDF just fine. Hence this must be due to some sort of incompatibility between my font and acrobat, or some bug in the way the font is embedded (which the Free viewers can handle gracefully but acrobat cannot). Maybe this bug is related to the way I installed the font. However, I cannot find anything wrong with the set of installed files: $ dpkg -L xfonts-rots /. /etc /etc/X11 /etc/X11/fonts /etc/X11/fonts/X11R7 /etc/X11/fonts/X11R7/Type1 /etc/X11/fonts/X11R7/Type1/rotis.scale /usr /usr/share /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/xfonts-rotis /usr/share/doc/xfonts-rotis/copyright /usr/share/doc/xfonts-rotis/changelog.gz /usr/share/fonts /usr/share/fonts/X11 /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1 /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr1b8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr1r8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3b8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3l8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3li8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3r8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3ri8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3x8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4b8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4l8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4li8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4r8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4ri8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4x8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/prob8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pror8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/prori8a.afm /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr1b8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr1r8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3b8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3l8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3li8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3r8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3ri8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr3x8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4b8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4l8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4li8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4r8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4ri8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pr4x8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/prob8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/pror8a.pfb /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/prori8a.pfb Any ideas? -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
