RobinReumers Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) When I select "save records as PDF", the ⬠symbols in my text fields won't export correctly (see the attachment). Are there any workarounds for this (charset change, â¦)? Edited December 8, 2009 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardBurrow Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 It could be due to the font you're using not having a euro character?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinReumers Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hm I doubt it, if I just display the layout, it looks good. If on the Mac, I print the layout and then choose "save as PDF", there is no problem either. The problem only occurs when saving directly from FM. Any other ideas?

OneTime Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Did you ever get this issue fixed? I am having all the same issues. Works in the places you say, but the actual pdf gets messed up. Where you had a disappearing euro symbol, I have all "chinese" or random symbols. This doesn't happen all the time nor with all the different layouts I save as pdf. Any suggestions? Would the problem be with FMP, Preview or OS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies Naval Posted October 5, 2010 Newbies Share Posted October 5, 2010 I had the same problem and specifications of Filemaker Pro 11 (and previous) explain that is not able to fallback a font. This looks like it means that for whatever reason the euro sign is not being used as an Unicode character but an ASCII one. Change the font to Arial or Times Roman or any of the fonts included with the Mac OS and the euro sign will appear when saving as PDF. Really, it is a matter of trying every font. For example, Garamond Premier Pro shows the euro sign in PDF but Myriad Pro doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
