WRI Tech Support sent me an answer to the font problem. Copying the Type 1 (not True Type) fonts made the error go away: Hello Dr. Treat, A workaround for the font-related issue that you encountered, is to place copies of the Mathematica Type 1 fonts from C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\4.2\SystemFiles\Fonts\Type1 into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Resource\Font Sincerely, George Kambouroglou Technical Support Wolfram Research, Inc. support at wolfram.com -----Original Message----- From: DrBob [mailto:drbob at bigfoot.com] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Subject: [mg36780] RE: [mg36746] Exporting Cells to PDF The same command worked for me, insofar as creating the plot is concerned. I did get an error message opening the file, saying that Adobe Acrobat was "Unable to find or create the font 'Mathematica1Mono-Bold'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." The plot looks fine, though. Bobby Treat -----Original Message----- From: Dave [mailto:yoheythere at nospam.hotmail.com] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Subject: [mg36780] [mg36746] Exporting Cells to PDF I've been using Mathematica 4.1 on Win98 as a word processor for math-related documents, but often people that need to see the documents don't have Mathematica, and for whatever reason on my computer the HTML saves don't work at all. I'd like to export to PDF format. I can export images to PDF format no problem using, for example Export["c:\docs\plot3.pdf", Plot[Sin[x],{x,-2Pi,2Pi}]], and I can export cells correctly to GIF, JPEG, and WMF formats (probably more, those are the only ones I tested) using, for example Export["c:\docs\cell4.gif", Cell[ <<...(copied cell data from Edit->Copy As->Cell Expression)...>> ]] When I change the filename to a .PDF and evaluate the cell, the program displays 'Running...' for a second and gives the 'Out[n] = c:\docs\cell4.pdf ' message as if a file was created, but no file is created anywhere with any name that I could find with Start->Find->[All files and folders created in the previous day]. Is there a limitation to PDF exporting I don't know about? Do I need to upgrade to 4.2? Am I doing something wrong with the Export[] command? Do I need a faster computer? A patch? Something else? Thanks in advance.
