I once saw a similar instance with a font-- where FrameMaker added an extra
slant to italics. This particular font was one that I created in
Fontographer because I the font family had no italic version available for
purchase. Fontographer (or, more likely, my knowledge of it!) must create
fonts in a weird way because FrameMaker saw this font as a regular font.
Assigning it the italic attribute in FrameMaker put an extra slant on it.
The solution was to treat it as a regular font, so that it would print as a
normal italic.

Subject: switched printers -- now HelvObl prints with extra slant
Hi,
I'm using FM 6.5, Mac, in Classic. I was printing to a Laserwriter Select
360, through an AsanteTalk bridge, and everything looked as it should.
I've just switched to a Lexmark E120n laser printer. Now it prints
Helvetica bold oblique and Helvetica oblique with an additional slant. (I
have not checked if this is also happening with other fonts.)
I've reinstalled the fonts, then installed a different version (from a
colleague) of the fonts into the System 9 Fonts folder, and restarted FM,
with no change.
This also happened, before I switched the printers (machines), when I made
pdfs from the FM files, either using a.) Save as, then Distiller, or b.)
Print to file, then Distiller.
It's probably something obvious, but I don't get it. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Louise Moritsugu
