Ehm, perhaps you should outline fonts before exporting? Export only means to export the document as is. |
|
no laser, during export scribus can transform the documents font. this is a common action. since pdf/x-3 requires all fonts to be embedded, i fear that somebody wanted to disable the option not to embed the fonts and at the same time disable the legit wish to outline all fonts. |
|
My fault. I've been somewhere else :-( |
|
That's ok, Laser. @ ale, thanks for your comment. This functionallity is not available since 1.5.1.. in 1.4.6 it worked perfectly |
|
Is there a workaround? |
|
>> in 1.4.6 it worked perfectly In 1.4.6, fonts are usually converted to Type 3 fonts when "outline" is selected, so this is not real outlining. 1.5.1+ does real outlining so that exported PDF does not contain any fonts. Note: use of Type 3 fonts and outlining tend to make fonts bolder when printed. |
|
@jghali, good to hear, but if it's not an available feature, it doesn't help. |
|
I'd also like to see this. It affects PDF/X1-a and PDF/X-4 as well. |
|
Because of issue 14290 (problems with some print providers when not outlining fonts) I'm interested too in combining PDF X-3 and outlining all fonts in PDF. I can't see any discrepance in allowing both an the same time. "pdf/x-3 requires all fonts to be embedded" only means that if there are fonts at all they have to be embedded. But when outlining, there are only graphic objects and no more fonts. So this should be working without problems with pdf x-3 (and actually does if I use older scribus versions from 1.5.3svn when this combination was still allowed) So it is possible to reenable outlining in pdf x-3? |
|
>> older scribus versions from 1.5.3svn when this combination was still allowed Older versions are performing outlining by generating Type 3 font subsets when possible. So this is not outlining as 1.5.3 does it where there won't be any font or text object in the output PDF at the end. |
|
>> 1.5.1+ does real outlining I'm talking about 1.5.3svn from end of last year. So it should already do real outlining |
|
Tested r22218; Linux Mint 18 Great job. Works well (but I couldn't test the PDF file in printing house). |
