Problem using Lebans A2000ReportToPDF functions in Access 2K Runtime

[Mr Barry R Houghton]

Hi there - I hope someone can help me with this...

I'm currently using the latest and greatest version of ReportToPDF (great
work btw, Stephen!)

When developing the application using Access 2K, I have no problems.
However, when I pass the app onto our client, a problem occurs and the PDFs
print out all funny. And by funny I mean anything in bold text overlaps the
surrounding text.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

I've been doing some more testing and it looks as if there is a font issue
on the client machine that is causing the problem...

Will report back if/when I find more

Right then... I can confirm that it's not a font issue...

I have changed the app so that it shows the report first, and then calls the
ReportToPDF function

The report displays fine in all the correct fonts, but the PDF doesn't. It
looks like the PDF is being created in Arial, when the report is in Times
New Roman.

Any ideas any one?

I can also confirm that the snapshot of the report works fine, so the
problem occurs when the snapshot is converted to a PDF.

Wonder if it's in the StrStorage.dll or a problem with the DynaPDF.dll???

Any help greatly appreciated!

Are you calling the conversion function with the option to Embed FOnts?
