I haven't really done all that much printing, aside from album pages. I've been printing quite a bit, and on changing over to Album Easy, I selected Charter as my serif font. It is an Apple supplied font, which was first included with MacOS 10.13 High Sierra. I disabled it today, never to use it again. Printing small sizes, it completely munges the text. The letter "e" is pretty much absent from the printouts.
What kills me is it took this long (well, a few months!) to realize this. I noticed the print wasn't very good, but chalked it up to the printer and using cardstock.
I just printed the test file on cardstock and looked at it and it was fine. But then I realized I was looking at Helvetica, as Charter had been disabled - sheesh! Re-enabled Charter, printed on cardstock and it's the same - smaller sizes miss most of the letter e, ands it's hit & miss on other letters as well.
I'll disable it again and send a report in to Apple regarding this. How many years has Apple had this and no one has said anything? I wonder what they'll say. Another thing that makes me go "hmmm!"
Cochin works just fine though.
