Hello Marc,
Helvetica is a standard font and XEP do not embed it. Your font
configuration for ArialMT defines that it should be embedded and
subsetted (note that <font> have 'subset' property that is 'true' by
default) therefore XEP embeds subset of ArialMT into generated PDFs.
Adobe Acrobat version 5 and older have problems combining documents,
which include subsets of the same font (http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/2e42e.htm)
That's what you are experiencing.
So you have two options:
1) Upgrade to Adobe Acrobat 6 in which this problem was fixed.
2) Turn off subsetting in the font configuration:
<font name="ArialMT"
ttf="C:\WINNT\Fonts\arial.ttf"
embed="true"
subset="false">
<alias name="Arial"/>
</font>
Note that with subsetting turned off resulting PDFs will became
larger.
Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov mailto:peshkov@renderx.com
