Italic slant

Post by rawebb »

Italic typefaces in some documents are rendered with a reverse slant in PDF-XChange (Ver 2.0, Build 40.7). The effect seems to be limited to sans serif faces, where slanting the base roman face is often used as a substitute for a true italic rendering.

One-page example attached. (The extension pdf is not allowed? Curious restriction in a pdf forum.)

Looks OK here, slanting to the right as usual — the same as in Adobe Reader 9.

Please report the problem via Help -> Report a Problem -- I need to check your fonts list and viewer's settings.
