The only font being used is Verdana, which didn't ought to be a problem.

Plan-G writes a temporary file when it prints, called temp.xps. Xps is Microsoft's equivalent to pdf, and it's how Plan-G represents the printout internally. There are a host of ways to convert from one to the other, including this free web service: http://www.xps2pdf.org/ I've used it to convert a number of Plan-G xps's to pdf with no problem.

To get the temp.xps, all you need to do is generate a Print Preview. You can then copy and save it wherever you like.

Hello TIm,
I found a another solution since you mentioned about the print view being in xps format. It seems that Abobe Reader handles natively the xps format. One just loads the xps into Adobe Reader and the conversion is immediate. Upon saving you have your correct and intact pdf.

Thanks for the quick reply Tim:
Verdana that's as plain jane Microsoft as you can get. Thanks for the workaround...
Best of Luck....Tommy

Hello Tim and Others,
First off Plan-G is the best VFR and IFR too, flight planning software to come along since FSNav and FSC, thanks Tim for your outstanding programming efforts.

I use the "print to pdf" option as an enhanced kneeboard for my MSFS flights. I'm having problems getting "print to pdf" working with Plan-G, most of the pdf file is legible but the actual flight plan numbers and headings come out garbage characters. Here is an example of what I'm referring to. I was wondering too about the file name passed to Adobe as well? Are there some fonts at issue here?
