Again, the resolution it make sure you have the latest RIP - as that's the problem... The fact that the PDF has been produced with CID fonts isn't important... Now why do you get those fonts as CID - because Distiller wanted to. Bascially, something about the font in question, the set of characters from that font that you used, etc. made Distiller choose to create a CID font from your TTF font... Distiller does lots of font "conversions" behind your back - for example, did you know that every Type 1 font that goes into Distiller comes out as a Type1C font in the PDF?? >whilst we have PitStop there seems to be >no way that that can change a TTF (CID) font to a humble TTF. Nope, there isn't.
