Upgrading WF4 to Creo 3 TrueType font PDF export issues

Hello,

I am currently upgrading from WF4 to Creo 3 (M110).  I'm comparing out drawing export to PDF, and I'm seeing some issues when using true type fonts.

As you can see, the +/- symbol in the dimensions is overlapping the end of the dimension value.  This is only appearing after exporting the PDF with TrueType fonts.  Both the drawing in Creo and a PDF export with stroke fonts correctly displays the dimension symbols.  FYI, this is happening on other symbols too, this was just the best example.

Any ideas how I can export the PDF with TrueType fonts without this overlap?

Thank you,

Corey

I have tried this without success. This just results in the same stroking that selecting "Stroke All Fonts" ends up with.  The only thing I have been able to do to fix the problem was to change the font.  "win_font" will work for us.

Thank you all for the assistance.

Hi,

I can test your problem on my PC. Please create test part+drawing and upload them along with TTF font file. Use How to Attach a File to a Discussion Reply procedure for uploading files.

I've attached a file zip file with the drawing and models.  I've also included screen shots of my PDF export settings and the text styles properties of the dimensions in question.

Also, when I export the PDF from Creo, the lines are much thicker than expected.

Please let me know if you need anything else.  Thank you.
