UNKNOWN FONT

So you added the dimensions in SketchUp, not in LayOut. What happens if you use LayOut to add the dimensions instead?

Can you share a LayOut file that exhibits this behavior?

"What happens if you use LayOut to add the dimensions instead?" Same result. Can't import it.

Can you share a LayOut file that exhibits this behavior? Test 001 - I added the dimensions in SketchUp.

What happens when you export this one to PDF and open it in Corel? Does it work?

Test 001 dr.layout

Thank you Dave R., but it wouldn't import.

Dave R

Is there an update for Corel Draw X6?

Since the PDF opens in Adobe Acrobat and displays the dimensions without issue, I would be looking at Corel instead of LayOut for the problem.

OK

Dave R., you're probably right that it is a CorelDraw problem. I reinstalled CorelDraw, but it didn't help.

Is there any any way to remove any fonts from the SU or LO file? When I exported a file to PDF without any fonts, it worked okay. The fonts seem to be the problem.

You could delete all of the text from the SU file, save, update the LO file and make the export.

Dave R., yes, I removed the dimension lines from the SU file, saved, updated the LO file and made the export ... with no problem.

Dave R, after extensive effort with CDR, it seems there is a problem with the export from LO to PDF. Can one reinstall or repair the installation of LO?

Someone who works with CDR, wrote to me,"Your file is corrupt. Try this file instead." He seemed to have fixed the "corrupt file".

You can try to reinstall SketchUp and LayOut. Right click on the installer and choose Run as administrator. Then, when presented with the option, choose Repair.

I wonder why Adobe reader and Acrobat display the font without problem. If the PDF file is corrupt, they should have problems reading it, too.

djh

Dave R, thanks for your patience and suggestion. I repaired the installation but ... it still doesn't import into CDR X6.

Dave R

As I indicated in my last post, I find it difficult to believe that LayOut is creating a corrupt PDF considering that Adobe Read and Acrobat have no problem with it. I think despite what the guy at CDR told you, the problem is on the Corel end. I don't have a fix for you, though. Sorry about that.
