"The font 'MyFont' contains a bad /BBox" Error

FontCreator - Font Editor FontCreator - Support

I’m using a font created with Font Creator 4.5 and am getting a “The font ‘MyFont’ contains a bad /BBox” error when I use it in a PDF document and open it with Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0.

The font that I made is for logos and signatures. I imported bitmap images into Font Creator to make the various characters.

If anyone knows how to avoid these errors, please let me know.

Thanks for your help.

BBox means Bounding Box. How did you generate the PDF? Can you send a copy of your font directly to me? I’ll see if I can identify your problem.

Most likely you need to add outlines to specific glyphs, I’m not sure which one(s) so you need to experiment with that. Let us know your results.
