    Quark 6.5 to 7.3 font problem

    I'm in the process of testing a new version of Quark for my company and I've found a problem with one of our main fonts. The font works fine in 6.5 - but in 7.3 I lose many characters (fractions, quotes, dashes, etc.) and they are replaced with accent letters. (ó, í, etc.). Any ideas? The font in question is the only True Type font we use. Everything else is postscript. It has been customized for us sometime in the past - but going back to them isn't an option as I have no idea who did the work. I'd like to just replace the font – but I don't think that's an option. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    There is probably an error in the cmap of the font or they have messed about with character/glyph names that now causes a problem in this version of Quark XPress. If you would like us to have a look at the font and see if we can repair it, contact me off list at: mail (at) dtptypes (dot) com
