Leonard,
Below is a report output for a modified file. You'll notice that the first
font is different because the PDF was manually modified. What I am being
told by a 3rd party vendor is they cannot read the PDF because of the
prefix. If there is some way to I can generate the file without the subset
(Arial, TrueType Encoding: WinAnsiEncoding Encoding: Identity-H, ToUnicode
table) would be helpful. You'll have to forgive me because my knowledge of
PDF files is very limited. I'm not sue if this is even possible. Also, is
there a good reference to look at that further explains your explanation of
the prefix being required by the PDF Reference? I just want as much
supported documentation to let the vendor know that this may not be the
issue.
Thanks again,
Collin

There are no problems here at all. Looks just fine. What makes you think
there is?
The prefix is required by the PDF Reference for any font that is subset
(which, as you can see, is true for all of these).

We are having issues reading certain information off a PDF file generated

properties appear really odd. Using PDFlib FontReporter

returns the following information about the fonts in the PDF:

I am being told that the root of the issue is the prefix attached to the
name of the font. (Ex: YQYVPL+TimesNewRomanPS-BoldMT).
Can anyone explain what this prefix is and what it's for? Does anyone know
how to get rid of the prefix and is it possible to do so in CFMX?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Collin
