Problem with creating PDF of Word doc that includes equations
Subject:Problem with creating PDF of Word doc that includes equations From:Melanie_Albrecht -at- moldflow -dot- com To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 5 Sep 2001 18:56:04 +1100
Hi all
I posted this to the Austechwriter list this morning - no responses yet so
I thought I'd try you lot.
I have been asked to create a PDF of a Word document that includes a lot of
equations.
In the Word, doc, the equations look fine on screen and they print out fine
as well.
In the PDF, most of the equations have a missing or truncated bracket. It's
always a right-hand bracket that has the problem.
I have tried creating the PDF with all fonts embedded, not embedded,
subset, and not subset.
I have Word 97, Acrobat 4.0, MS Equation 3.0, and I'm working on Windows NT
4.0.
A landmark hotel, one of America's most beautiful cities, and
three and a half days of immersion in the state of the art:
