Hi Martin

The best you can do is make a sample doc for us right now.
1 image frame with a picture of well rendered text from another app like Word or similar
1 text frame containing the same text.
Let us know the font that works and where we can get it and of course what language it is. The text should be something we c an publish and republish without issue.

Submit all that in a bug and we'll test it.

We'll be providing some test binaries in a week or so.

Craig
