SYMPTOMS
When you are printing a document that contains a read-only embedded font
that is not listed as an installed font in the Fonts folder, Windows NT
uses a substitute font if the printer is set to use NT EMF 1.003 mode.
Windows NT prints the font correctly in RAW mode.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use RAW format to print jobs using embedded
read-only fonts. To change to RAW format, follow these steps:
- Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Printers.
- Use the right mouse button to click the printer you are using, and
then click Properties on the menu that appears.
- On the General tab, click Print Processor.
- In the Default Data Type box, click RAW, and then click OK.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
