We have two SAP systems, because of the different business areas that our company has.
We develop a smartform with a custom style which has Gill Sans MT as default font. The smartform is printed directly into PDF format.
On system A on all environments it works fine and we transported it to system B.
On system B the output on PDF format comes in bold, all the characters are bold. This happens on all environments. On preview we don't see bold font but the spacing between characters is larger than expected (for example, a date is printed in two lines of a cell).
I've checked the settings on SE73 and they are the same on both systems.
I've also created a second style were I've taken out all bold settings. On system A, the smartform' style was changed to this new one. The changes were transported to system B, and still it prints all bold.
by indication from support, uxecuted report RSTXDELL and it solved the problem

Also checked chars per inch on both systems' smartforms and they have the same value

Also analysed tables TFOxx from both environments and they are equal, except that in production there's no italic font installed.

I runned report RSTXPDF2 and for the SAP font "GILLSMT" and variant "normal" I have differences on the font name:
System A has "GillSansMT" and System B has "GillSansMT,Bold".
Can I export this font from one system to another?
Or, how can I change the font's variant?

Thanks for the replys. I think this is an answer to both.
Checked SPAD and differences are:
1. output device LOCL:
System A:
- Device Type: ZSAPWIN
- Host Spool Access Method: F
System B:
- Device Type: SAPWIN
- Host Spool Access Method: G
2. Device Type:
System A:
- has two custom formats (none used on this specific smartform)

Check printer and device type settings from SPAD tcode.

Hi,
Check the driver which converts it to PDF. That one will be different on both systems
