BUG
When displaying labels using Maplex, they do not appear or else appear garbled. If the label engine is switched to the Standard Label Engine, the labels appear normally.
The labels are being displayed using a Type 1 font or an Open Type font that is Type 1 based, and Windows font smoothing is turned on for the machine.
Determine which type of font is being used by looking at the file icon and the file extension in the \WINDOWS\Fonts directory.
· Type 1 font
This font has a red lower case 'a' as an icon and the file extension is '.pfm'
· Open Type font (Type 1 based)
This font has a green upper case 'O' as an icon and the file extension is '.otf'
