I am using Distiller 3.01 to create PDFs of an Adobe Illustrator 7.0 file
(printed to file using a PostScript printer). My boss wants me to include a
field where customers can type in their personalized access code, so they
can have this info printed along with the generic information.
The problem is that my Touch-Up Text tools and Select Text tools don't work.
In the Acrobat Exchange help file, it says I have to change to Type 1 fonts
or use Acrobat PDF Writer. PDF Writer ruins my document (Graphics are all
messed up.) Forgive my ignorance, but I just select fonts from the list
that automatically comes up. I have no idea whether/which ones/ are True
Type or Type 1.
Does anyone know how I can enable these tools in Exchange/Reader?
