Chinese font may not be supported Jun 9, 2005

If the Chinese font you used is not the type supported by the version of InDesign which you are using, then the printed version, including the PDF version, may not show the characters correctly.

显示问题 Jun 9, 2005

PDF文件里的汉字（小字体）看上去总是不够清楚，这是显示的问题，打印出来就不会这样。可以如下设置，让汉字看上去更清楚一些：
打开 Edit -> Preference -> Smoothing，选择 Use CoolType (Recommended for laptop/LCD screens)，然后选择比较黑的字体（D最黑）。

谢谢shang的tip!我也一直为PDF文件的显示字迹太淡苦恼，现在好多了。
