Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Way to force LaTeX to NOT use TrueType fonts?

[tiwhu]

Hello All,

I ran into this problem lately: when I compile my LaTeX file, TexShop automatically uses both TrueType and Type 1 fonts when creating the pdf file.
Is there a command with which I can force LaTeX not to use TrueType fonts?

Thanks, t

Hi,

do you use XeLaTeX, or LuaLaTeX? If you don't need it, you could switch to pdfLaTeX.

Thanks for the quick reply! As far as I know, I am using pdflatex - I just run TexShop on Mac with the default settings. The interesting thing is that these TrueType fonts show up only in certain documents, but there is no difference in the preamble of these documents...

How you you know those are TrueType fonts?

I open the pdf output with Adobe Acrobat (or Acrobat Reader), then File->Properties->Fonts tab. It lists all the fonts in the document, and some are Type1, some are TrueType.
