I need this solved ASAP as our printing company is waiting for us to submit
this PDF...
I'm generating a PDF with XEP 3.2.1. The document uses three custom fonts,
all of which are TrueType fonts, and each of which has several variants, all
declared in fonts.xml with embed="true".
The fonts are correctly used and displayed in the document produced;
however, most of the fonts are not embedded!
The code from fonts.xml is shown below. Here's the information given by
Acrobat when I open the PDF that is produced and choose File -> Document
Properties -> Fonts and then click 'List All Fonts...':
Original Font Type Encoding Actual Font Type
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
Chianti-Bold TrueType (CID) Identity-H Embedded
TrueType
ArrusBT-Roman TrueType (CID) Identity-H Embedded
TrueType
Times-Roman Type 1 Windows
ArrusBT-Italic TrueType (CID) Identity-H
ArrusBT-Bold TrueType (CID) Identity-H
Monospace821BT-Roman TrueType (CID) Identity-H
Helvetica Type 1 Standard
Monospace821BT-Bold TrueType (CID) Identity-H
ZapfDingbatsITCbyBT-Regular Type 1 Built-in
Monospace821BT-Italic TrueType (CID) Identity-H
As you can see, only 2 of the 7 custom font variants I specified are being
embedded! What am I doing wrong?
fonts.xml code follows...
<font name="ArrusBT-Roman" ttf="c:\WINDOWS\Fonts\arrusn.ttf"
embed="true">
