Monotype Hadassah font doesn't display correctly under win 7


i recently installed fresh win 7 pro OS on brand new DELL i5 desktop machine. while trying to use word 2013, i noticed that text written in Monotype Hadassah font is displayed using Times new roman font. is anybody noticed such an issue?

thanks.


Solution

  • after some experiments:

    • the fonts works OK in notepad - which means that probably the problem is in office 2013 and not in the OS itself.
    • since the font is registered as restricted with respect to the "embedding" ability i thought that it may be due to this restriction, but nevertheless, removing the restriction ( i recommend on TTFPatch utility didn't change the behaviour.
    • interestingly, i found that saving the document as PDF resulted in correct rendering of the font - which is pretty satisfactory to me.
