Error "Cannot extract the embedded font..."

Post by saitok »

Hi,

When I open certain PDF using Acrobat, the following message is shown after a while.
Can I check this problem with PitStop Action or Preflight?

I guess this error is not infamous... :(
Does anyone has good solution?
- - -
Cannot extract the embedded font 'BCDJEE+......'. Some characters may not display or print correctly.

Thanks,

Acrobat is not very specific as to why it can't extract the embedded font and PitStop Preflight checks tend to be very specific. Therefore it is hard to say which one might work for this file.

Can you try
action lists.zip
(3.27 KiB) Downloaded 601 times
?

The issues which will be reported by the first action list will usually be problematic.

The more aggressive action list will find more issues, some of them will be problematic, but other issues may not be a problem for your workflow.

Hi Padawan,

Thank you very much for providing me the Action Lists.
But actually, they pick up some fonts which I don't need to detect as error.

The following Acrobat Preflight seems to be able to detect the error exactly.
So, I'll do this with Switch using Acrobat JavaScript.
