Embedding Fonts Unknown Application

Brief Description

Font embedding enables fonts used in the creation of a document to travel with that document, which ensures that a user views the document exactly as the author intended.

If you embed the whole font in the PDF, the person on the other end can make changes to it even if he didn't have your font, if he has the full version of program with the capability of modifying PDFs. The file size of the PDF would also be bigger because you are embedding the entire font. It's the main limitation to using embedded fonts.

You should embed ALL the fonts, you use.

More details

Only TrueType fonts can be embedded, and then only if their licensing allows embedding.

To embed all TrueType fonts in your publication when you save it, select Embed TrueType fonts when saving publication in the Fonts dialog box (Commercial Printing Tools command, Tools menu).

When you embed fonts, you have the option to subset them rather than embed the whole font. This may be useful if you need to keep the file size of your publication small. However, subsetting fonts will limit your ability to edit text and make any needed corrections. If you expect to edit your publication later, don't subset fonts when embedding.

You can set the embedding status for individual fonts. If you know that some TrueType fonts are available on the computer or at the commercial printing service you're taking your publication to but that others are unavailable, you can embed only those fonts you'll need.
