Prerequisites

Adobe CC products

Source Han Sans Super OTC

Description

Font weight medium and heavy in source han sans super OTC are both unavailable with Adobe products on Windows, even for pdf files that are produced using Adobe acrobat from other programs like Microsoft word there is a problem that the pages using medium or heavy weight are rendered totally blank, i wonder is this still the problem of Adobe products...

Can you confirm which version of Adobe apps and where you got the super OTC? In the latest Photoshop CC (22.1.0) on Windows 10 it looks fine to me. A PDF made from Word also looks fine in Acrobat. If you have a problem please provide more information on versions. It also helps to include screenshots.

Thanks for following up. It seems the problem lies in the Adobe products, after updating to the latest CC version that problem has gone, but...since i am using an old version of acrobat XI pro that cannot be updated, still if i use it exporting any pdf from 3rd-party apps like MS word, the output pdf will lose any texts that reference the medium or heavy weight.

P.S. i have downloaded and used the super OTC from right this repository on github.

I wonder if you can additionally make a super OTC for Source Han Sans without the monospaced fonts in it, so that people using old version of Adobe products or 3rd-party products would have no problem with the super OTC just like it for the Source Han Serif.

Thank You!

@punchcutter In Adobe CC 2018 and before (just in my case), font weight medium is unavailable. PhotoShop will show a diag which said "Could not complete your request blah blah".
