    Also I would be careful when using fonts supplied to you. As I understand it you must hold a licence for each and every font on your machine, using supplied fonts may be infringing copyright laws.

    Its not a script but InDesigns built in preflight can detect overset text and take you to the page

    Its easy to do in Acrobat. Go to preflight in Acrobat Pro (Cmd + shift x) and type “outline” in the search field top right and that gives the option to convert all fonts to outlines

    Yes it will, you have just downloaded a placeholder version thats probably got a big watermark across the image. When you go to purchase the hi re you normally get options for which file size you need for your project, all priced accordingly of course.

    i understand distiller is not ideal, live transparency shouldn’t be an issue as X1a flattens files, but this would get you out of a hole, we have used Distiller in the past with good results. I believe Distiller comes with a preset for PDFX1a output. Good luck.

    If you have Acrobat Distiller you could print a .ps file to your desktop and drop onto distiller?

    Select the content and Ctrl + click, select transform / rotate and enter degrees to rotate – 90 ?
    Make sure you have correct reference point selected in the control bar (top left) so content rotates on the correct point. You can also use rotate command from the toolbar.
    You don’t need to set copy at wrong angle to be able to read / edit, just use page rotation to view.

    If these lines show up on your pdf only and not on printouts it is probably a flattening issue and the pdf should be fine. We get this regularly and there are Acrobat prefs you can change that should get rid of this artefacts viewing issue.
    If you go to Acrobat prefs / Page display and untick Smooth Line Art & Smooth images they should disappear.

    I believe these fonts are available on Typekit – depending on your subscription. Font licencing can be quite a difficult path to navigate and sometimes expensive.
    I would check out on typekit first. There are plenty of sites where fonts can be downloaded for free but you would need to be careful that a licence to use them is not needed.

    Very weird, i am running latest version and it works fine, maybe try trashing your ID prefs first, if that doesn’t help maybe a reinstall is needed, it definitely exists!

    Cmd + Alt W brings up the tab then attach it to your palette

    Postscript type 1 is readable on macs – we use this old format quite regularly. There maybe font cache problems on her mac, something like Fontnuke may sort this out. You could try dropping the font (Postscript type 1 fonts will have a screen and a printer font) straight into the system library. ~/Library/Fonts
