Hi,

I have problem showing the custom font Caslon 224 Std bold with color code #00B5AC. The colored text on pdf with this font is blur.

Can you please check what might be the issue.

Thanks!

Hi,

If you have space in between your font name, you will need to enclose the font name with double quotation. For example:

.div
{
font-name: "Some Font Name";
}

Also your font file must be a true type font.

If that's not the problem, we will need your font file to take a look. We will PM you where to send the font file shortly.

Thanks!

Hi again,

It was with single quotes, but I tried by changing it with double quotes but not worked.

.Caslon224Std
{
font-family: "Caslon224Std-Bold", Georgia, Times New Roman, Serif;
}

Yes, I sent the font file. It is of true type.

Regards.

The text in black is also blur when printed to PDF. On our web page with the same styles the text is not blur in any color format.

Hi,

The font name is "ITC Caslon 224 Std Bold", not "Caslon224Std-Bold".

Thanks!

Font name is changed to "ITC Caslon 224 Std Bold", but it doesn't have any effect. The text is still blur.

Hi,

We tested your font at here and it works fine. So it must have something to do with other things in your HTML. Try to reduce your HTML to the bare minimum and see what triggers the problem. Text in PDF are usually rendered in vector format which will give you the best result. however sometimes when you have other effects on (such as font shadow, or certain background that requires alpha mixing), then the font will be flatted out and rendered in bitmap format. In that case when you zoom in the text it will become blurry. If that's the case, you must remove those special effects.

Thanks!
