[WebPub] Help please: IE hates my PDF

[Lisa C Mayer]

Hi everyone,

Fixed at last!

I want to thank the following folks who have been so great about helping me troubleshoot and fix the problem with the PDFs on the MITEI site.

Barbara Malec - Associate Director, Web and Design, MIT Office of Communications
Victor Park - Designer and Advisor, MIT Publishing Services Bureau
Mark Pearrow - Drupal Engineer, MIT IS&T
Steve Landry - Senior IT Consultant, MIT IS&T
Chris Giles - Web Developer and Consultant, Indigo Digital, soon to be IS&T DCAD :)
Eric Keezer, Graphic Designer, MIT Office of Communications

Here's the fix - open the doc in Adobe, and Save as Optimized.  In the Optimization settings, make sure that in the "Font" category you UNCHECK the box for "Subset all embedded font."
Apparently macs are way more forgiving than PC's when it comes to embedding fonts.

You guys rock.  Thank <your preferred higher power goes here /> for WebPub!

See you on the grid,
Lisa
