unrecognised fonts opening from eps

[Mike redwood]

Using acrobat distiller to print a pub using verdana font as an eps file is fine. A font warning appears while opening in Photoshop & Illustrator. If I proceed, all the letters appear as squares. I can save as a pdf file via a ps file that opens ok but its very low res and unsuitable for a commercial printer. I've tried turning off all the compressions but still can't get a high res file to send
Appreciate any help......

There are lots of support documents on the www.adobe.com site. Three of the products
in your query are Adobe, it may be a better place to look for support.

Illustrator doesn't recognize embedded fonts. Not from PDF, foreign eps, or
even its own eps (unless saved with illustrator editability).

Photoshop may not -- I don't know because opening a vector file in Pshop is
almost always the wrong thing to do

What is it specifically that you are trying to do?
