Issue

Text is missing from PDF files published from ArchiCAD 11 on Windows.

Cause

A Font embedding problem in the PDF engine causes that certain (not widely used) font types appear white in the output file

Solution

Install Hotfix build 1200 or higher
Save a PDF file after installing the Hotfix
From Start menu Run type regedit to open Windows registry editor
find the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Graphisoft\ArchiCAD\ArchiCAD 11.0.0 INT R1\PDF (INT in this example stands for the international English language code. Yours could be different.)
Double-click the DWORD entry named Font subsetting and set the value to 0.

This will change how fonts are saved into the PDF file. The result will be larger PDF files, since now all subsets of all font types will be embedded into the PDF file.
