We are creating DWFs and have a problem with the font (Arial at 0.8 ) width factor being processed incorrectly. PLUS, settings are set for grayscale output but the DWF still has color. What's up with that?

See the attached file.

I am aware there are many issues with DWF and fonts. However, is this something that can be fixed by the user?

I had this issue, and an issue with fonts being substituted or shifted. The Export DWF in 9.1 and the Publish DWF in 2008 don't have an option to embed fonts. I believe you can add the font to some plotters which should take care of it. Otherwise, you'll have to install the DWF Writer (emulated printer) and print to DWF with it set to embed fonts.
