font error

I receive an error "invalidfont"

"OFFENDING COMMAND: show


Stack: (1)


when printing a pdf from "preview." Some of the document will print but then 2 pages with errors on them will print and the job stops.

How can this be resolved?

I’m not 100% sure, but I believe quitting (force quitting if that doesn’t work) preview and reopening it may help.

Make sure you’ve saved your files if you do force quit it.


Some others things to try are:

To restart your computer.

Using a different font which is known to work such as: Helvetica, Times New Roman, etc...


Hope this helps,
