Re: PDF and Micr Font

Pam,

This is most likely stating the obvious, and you probably have already
done this, but also make sure you have the MICR font actually installed on
whichever computer from which you are printing the PDF.  When printing to
a PDF from SQR, the actual font is *not* embedded in the PDF.  Only the
codes that instruct windows to display the font are embedded, so the font
itself still needs to reside on the machine viewing the PDF.
