PDF fonts

Does anyone else have spaces in their PDF files where an
accented character should be? This occurs in the character
names only as far as I can tell.

In the portraits section, do you see a cursive font or Courier?

It's not a Mac problem as I get the same result under Windows:
I checked!

Until Automagic came along, this wasn't an issue for me as it
didn't take rocket science to work out the names. But now,
it's causing a minor but annoying complication.

I have this problem, too. It's very annoying. Doesn't seem to affect AM,
though.

I have had this problem for years. It seems to be particularly on accented
letters.

Richard.

You guys realize that, by definition of PDF, everyone will have this problem?

PDF is designed so that a document will look the same on every computer. The PDF is generated with messy fonts, so everyone's turn looks the same: annoying.
