[Finale] EPS export - Mac OS X 10.4 - Fin07

I've been confused by some recent postings about EPS exporting on Macs -- I thought MM finally straightened out that problem. Does EPS export work reliably with Finale 2007 on Macs running OS X 10.4 (Tiger)? Any problems with embedding fonts, printing, etc.? I got so fed up dealing with EPS pr

Yes. I have seen this band-aid work but personally I don't trust it because you never know when these older fonts just wont work any longer in the OS or with Finale. BTW: The move to InDesign for us was not made with a decision to take a year off and move all of our books over during that year

Éric & Paul, I just did a quick test with FinMac2007a, 10.4.8 and was able to export an EPS with "é" and so on in it without problem. The EPS looked fine in Adobe Illustrator 10 and InDesign CS2. Éric, one thing to try might be to make English the top language in the list in the International Set

Hi Steve, I just did another test with Helvetica, Palatino and Times and all three printed fine from InDesign. InDesign did warn me that the document contained a binary EPS which might cause the print job to fail--but it didn't. I also ran the EPS through Distiller 7.0 and the PDF had the characte

Hello Leigh, My immediate questions are: 1. What font did you use to create this character (name and type)? 2. Did you print it out of Illustrator or InDesign or did you just look at it on screen? I have found that Times, Palatino, and Helvetica are problematic fonts with this issue. Steve

LOL! I love this. You have found some of the fonts that do work. To be even MORE specific... The problem fonts are Adobe Postscript Type 1 fonts (not OpenType Poscript fonts because OT works). Basically if you had purchased Adobe Fontfolio 8 or purchased newer than ~1993 postcript versions of Ti
