Hi all,

I might have mentioned this in the past for InDesign, but I'm seeing it 
when rasterizing in PhotoShop as well, so it becomes more relevant to 
the list.

I would be interested if someone could verify this with CS2.

Environment:
Intel OSX 10.4.11
C8.0.2 or C7.0.6
Adobe CS3 suite and Open Type fonts from it

Our workflow still requires an EPS export from Creator (pag system using 
Quark 4.11 for PC).  I'm seeing the following problem when using OT 
fonts in Creator.

Export an EPS
Rasterize in PS CS3, or
Place in ID CS3 and export a PDF from ID (or view the placed ad with 
View -> Display Performance -> High Quality Display)

The OT fonts blow out, as in the character spacing is ruined, some 
letters moved forward in the line and others moved backwards.  Seems to 
be the lower cased letters...

If I export a PDF from Creator and place it in ID, the problem goes 
away.  Not viable yet here until we test and move to a PDF ad workflow.
