Q: PDF print problems Preview Fails but Adobe Reader works?

Hello All,

 

I'm having issues printing pdf documents, it appears to be a Font problem, that is when I print from Apple's Preview 7.0 the document prints, but the spacing of characters is wrong, some symbols are missing etc.  When I print from Adobe Reader 11.0.07 the documents look normal.

 

More Details:  All pdfs generated using Latex fail this way, so it might be an issue there.  PDFs generated from iWork's Pages 5 print fine UNLESS I copy the Latex images into them then they print incorrectly again.

 

I suspect the issue is with Apple's Preview missing a font, although I'm not sure that's it nor how to fix it.  Adobe prints without any issues at all.

 

I am using OS 10.9.4 on a 2009 iMac.  I am printing to a HP Laserjet M4555 over Bonjour Service.


Thank you for reading,

DrD
