Barcode font does not show in pdf document generated by SAVEASPDF

Posted on by 574

We are using a barcode font in all reports involving documents (invoice, credit memo, sales shipment...) to represent the posting number of that document.

When the user prints,  previews, send to pdf or send to word, barcode font is shown properly.

But, when the user generates the document using any action involving SAVEASPDF  (like "Send by Mail"), the barcode font is not used in the document. Another standard font shows instead.

I have checked properties in pdf document and the barcode font is listed under embedded fonts. 

What it really surprises me is that if I copy those posting numbers that were supposed to be formated with that barcode font and paste it into word, then the barcode is correctly shown in word!

Things I have checked:

1) Barcode font is a true type

2) Barcode font is installed in NST

3) NST machine has been rebooted after installing barcode font

4) Client machines have Barcode font installed

5) ReportPDF font embedding is enabled in NAV service instance
