Omnis Studio 8.1.4 OmnisPDF
We had an issue going from v5 to v8 where both exist. But not had the font issue.
our main problem is using a second monitor when the PDF preview window just shows reports and fonts at different sizes.
I think the PDF part is using Python stuff from recollection, in answer to a question that Clifford made recently. Could be wrong about that, but it seems smart to use proven modern solutions to problems.
