Embedding a font into SparkDownloadProgressBar...

Hello.
I have a preloader that extends SparkDownloadProgressBar and it should be using embedded fonts.
First I tried using spark text controls and they are all giving me "Error: No class registered for interface 'mx.styles::IStyleManager2."
My assumption was that at the preloader stage loading is not complete, so sdk is not loaded and I was continuing to use
flash.text.TextField.
However, when I trying to [Embed()) a font nothing happens.
Have anyone experienced the same?

-managers=flash.fonts.AFEFontManager solved the problem

Embedding of fonts into PDF document

Hello people!
I need to create a PDF document that has text in different fonts(Arial Black, Courier New, Lucida Sans etc.) and languages(English, German, Russian etc.).
What is the best way to do this? How can I embed a font into a PDF document?
I am reading a PDF Reference documantation, but I have not found a good example of font embedding...
I would be thankful for an example or link to documentation or any other information that will help me to solve this problem.

>I have not found any free library for creating PDF files so I'm writing my own..
I would like to recommend that, rather than spending weeks or months
on getting fonts to embed (this is HARD) you look harder at the
available library. There are now dozens, and some are free, some are
even open source. Quality varies, of course.
http://www.planetpdf.com/ has a very big list of PDF tools, including
developer tools.
If you want to continue, realise that at points in this task you will
hit things which suddenly seem to make the job ten times harder than
before. Embedding fonts is one. Far Eastern fonts ten times harder
still.
> (The only library I found(for C++) was PDFLib, but it is not free)
Do a fair comparison of your months of coding time versus licensing
time.
>Adobe PDF Library is not free too(As I understand it)
Indeed not. From what we understand licensing is by negotation,
royalty based and never less than tens of thousands of dollars.
Frankly, too, it's not an ideal library for PDF creation.
>
>Yes, you are right! But almost every PDF doc is coded... How can I decode it to watch its contents?
Write a decoder. You are sure to need one as part of debugging your
own code at some point.
> Is there an example of font embedding in the documentation?
No, but it's just an extra FontFile, FontFile2 and/or FontFile3 key in
the FontDescriptor: not very interesting in PDF terms.
The key part is that you have to read and understand the font file
formats as well as the PDF format, because in most cases you have to
parse and may have to rewrite the font data. So if you want to embed
TrueType fonts, now is the time to read the TrueType font
specification (at least in outline, down to the level of the
individual tables: you can ignore the stuff about outlines and
rendering).

EMBEDDING POSTSCRIPT FONTS INTO PDFS

Used Quark Xpress 3.31 on Windows 98/Millenium/2000, made ps file, distilled to PDF. Worked great. All fonts embedded in PDF. Files worked great for prepress. Can't update Quark because of maths program I use that won't work on later Quark versions and can’t get math program upgrade. Trying to update to Windows XP. With XP postscript fonts will not embed in PDFs via Quark 3.31/Acrobat Distiller 4. Fonts will only show in Courier on PDF, although using Word same fonts will distill and show in PDF preferences/fonts list – so fonts are working. Have tried Universal Document Converter 5.3 as straight PDF converter. Fonts show on PDF but not showing as fonts embedded in preferences/fonts in PDF. Trying Adobe Acrobat Pro 10 but does not seem to work either. I think it is an issue with Quark 3.31 and later Windows platforms. Any suggestions out there on problem/solution? I may have to be stuck in the middle ages with software. Thanks

I may have to be stuck in the middle ages with software
People have the best experience when their application software, their OS software and their hardware are moving forward together. But you've pretty much just stuck with what you have for the past 16 years.
I'd guess that the problem is that QuarkXPress 3.31 (which came out in 1996, according to Wikipedia) is probably incompatible with Windows XP (which came out in 2001).
Either you stick with what you have or you'll have to replace all your software. Assuming you want to stick with QuarkXPress, you'll have to find new math software which works with a later version of QuarkXPress. This will then require you to probably upgrade your hardware and update your Windows software. Since you waited so long, this will take some work.

Embedding Fonts Into A PDF

Hi There,
I'm having trouble sending my files to the printers, my fonts is jumping...
How do i make sure that my fonts are embedded into my PDF file,
I'm using indesign cs5.5 Please can someone help me, I have distiller as well.
Thank You
Kind Regards

Can you check one of your problematic PDFs with Acrobat? Go to the Document Properties dialog and check the "Fonts" tab. That way you can verify if your fonts are embedded.
It's really straightforward: where Acrobat does *not* tell you a font is "(Embedded)" or "(Embedded subset)", that font is missing.
If you find you are creating files without embedding all fonts, you need to review your workflow. As I said above, you might have switched off InDesign's warnings for this.
Bear in mind it's also possible your PDFs are fine and it's your printer that needs to update.

Embedding Fonts into a PDF file - Best Solution/s

Good day
What is the best solution or solutions to Embedding Fonts into a PDF file?
Kind Regards

Amplifing on what Test Screen Name posted.
--| Use a Distiller Job Option that embeds fonts.
--| Use Acrobat Pro's (starting with 9.x) Preflight that embeds fonts (if they are present and installed on the local machine).
--| Untick "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog.
Be well...

Embedding fonts into movie

Hi all I have a projector into which I embedded some fonts
using the following commands: Insert>Media Element>Font. I
chose the option to include the entire character set. After I
embedded the fonts, all the spaces between the words in the movie
shows up as square boxes. How can I fix this?

Are you using a fancy, custom font downloaded from some free
font website?... your problem sounds like there's simply no space
character... the box is the default 'character glyph' used when the
nothing exists at the position in the font file.

Show multiple embedded fonts into an html textfield

Hi to everyone,
I'm using Flash CS5 , Actionscript 3.0 and export fo Flash Plaer 10.
I create a class, myHtmlText.as, that builds a basic TextField.
I create an empty file myHtmlText.fla
I embedded two fonts inside the myHtmlText.fla: "Ghotam Light" and "Ghotam Book"; I selected all characters for each font and exported for actionscript with the following linkage name: "GhotamBook" and "GhotamLight"
I wish to use the fonts embedded, in the TextField using htmlText, like this:
var tf:TextField = createTextField(10, 10, 400, 22);
 tf.htmlText = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.';
 //tf.embedFonts = true;
where createTextField function is:
private function createTextField(x:Number, y:Number, width:Number, height:Number):TextField
 var result:TextField = new TextField();
 result.x = x;
 result.y = y;
 result.width = width;
 result.height = height;
 addChild(result);
 return result;
but it does not work; the text is not displayed; If I use .text instead fo .htmlText, the latin text is displayed with a system font.
How can I do?

GhotamLight and GhotamBook should be class names and you'll need to import the needed classes to use:
var tf:TextField = createTextField(10, 10, 400, 22,"GotamBook");
 tf.htmlText = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.';
private function createTextField(x:Number, y:Number, width:Number, height:Number, fontS:String):TextField
 var result:TextField = new TextField();
 result.x = x;
 result.y = y;
 result.width = width;
 result.height = height;
 addChild(result);
var ClassRef:Class=Class(getDefinitionByName(fontS));
var font:Font = new ClassRef();
var tfor:TextFormat=new TextFormat();
tfor.font=font.fontName;
result.embedFonts=true;
result.defaultFormat=tfor;
 return result;

Embedding fonts into a component

I have this weird issue where I am using a component
(slideshowpro) and
have it set to embed the font, but it is not doing it. I am

there is anything else I can or if there might be a trick.
Can I embed a

that will
do it?
Thanks for any help with this!

Open the library panel. Click on the button in the upper
right corner of the panel to toggle open the library menu. Select
'New Font'. A new dialog window named “Font Symbol
Properties” will appear. Click the double-arrow button to the
right of the “Font:” field in the Font Symbol
Properties dialog. Select the name of the font. Then, give your
font a simple name in the “Name:” field. Leave all the
other options alone. Click OK.
Now Brian, this comes directly from the SSP_User_Guide.pdf

"@font-face" problem only with firefox. I have attached a style sheet while i was embedding my personal fonts into a website, but Firefox won't load them. Why?

I was hand coding my new website. This time i was trying to embed some personal fonts into my website, so i used a style sheet to embed which is coded like
"@font-face {
font-family:Sofia;
src:url(../fonts/Sofia-Regular.otf);
All the font work fine in the root folder of my site. But whenever i am creating dreamweaver templates and using them on pages which are in different folders but in the same root directory, the fonts are set back to default font. This problem is only with Firefox. Chrome, IE, Opera etc. works fine. Please Help!

i run into the same problem the last days.
using bootstrap and the fontawesome iconfonts.
everythings fine with chrome an ie, but no fonticons with firefox...
found alot of solutions, but none of them worked.
then, using the webdeveloper console (i used firebug all the time before) i see the error why the webfont was not loaded:
[14:18:36.161] GET http://www.example.com/font/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=3.2.0 [HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required 21ms]
yes, the site is behind a '''htaccess''' login.
first load after login is => everything ok!
after following an internal link => no webfonts!
after disabeling the htaccess login, everything works fine!
but that can only be a workaround!
why firefox didnt recognize the login/authorization like chrome does?!
what todo if you have your site behind htaccess and want to use webfonts?!

Why does embedding Adobe fonts in EPUB cause all text to display as oblique?

I have been having this problem for a while now to various degrees, and I stopped using InDesign to build and export EPUB files for a long time because of it. Lately I have decided to try reintroducing InDesign into my EPUB workflow. However, I have found that whenever I try to export an EPUB 2 file from InDesign CC 2014.1 while embedding Adobe fonts, all the text in the EPUB displays as oblique when I open the resulting file in Sigil or Calibre. Removing and then re-adding the fonts with no obfuscation does not correct the issue. Not embedding the fonts during export -- or removing them from the EPUB entirely -- eliminates the display problem, but obviously I can't expect people to have these fonts installed on their computers.
I do believe most Adobe font licenses allow for embedding, so I don't think this is a security issue. For the sake of this discussion the issue I am having is with Arno Pro OTF (Regular, Italic, Bold).
I can't find anything about this on the web. Can anyone help me with this issue, or has anyone else experienced this at least?
Thanks!
Allen

Here's another piece of information to add to the puzzle. The first screenshot is from Calibre on an PC with Windows 8.1 (using Google Chrome as default search engine). The second is from Calibre on a Mac with Yosemite 10.10.1 (using Safari 8.0.2 as default search engine). Both with the same ePub file created on CC2014 on the Mac using Arno Pro for the Latin text, Adobe Song for Chinese, and Deja Vu Sans for the Hexagram

Is ID exported PDF considered non-editable? (In the case of view&print embedding permission fonts)

Hiya!
I am a graphic designer and I use InDesign 5.5.
I have a question about font embedding when using the InDesign's export as a PDF in "print" format feature.
Many fonts allow embedding into digital documents only for the purpose of viewing and printing.
In addition to this the font EULA's mention that the embedded font may not be used to edit the document.
Is it possible to create a non-editable PDF with embedded fonts?
Is choosing PDF export option "print" the key here, or embedding the fonts as a subset?
Isn't it still possible to edit PDF in Acrobat with touch up text tool? Or use some third party editing program?
OR Is a PDF file - with fonts embedded as a subset - non-editable as such, or at least considered to be non-editable enough?
Or is it just that the file doesn't really have to be non-editable, but it must not be edited...
How do I ensure that? Do I even need to ensure that?
Whole thing seems so controversial.
Hope someone can shed some light into this!!!
-Ahlax-

Ahlax,
There are several separate concepts here.
First, PDF is really a final form file format. It wasn't designed as an editable format for layout such as InDesign's .indd format ane Word's .doc and .docx formats. Although PDF files may be tagged with contextual metadata, typical content of PDF files contains no context in terms of words, sentences, paragraphs, columns, etc. It is simply graphical objects including text fragments, vector artwork, and raster images at a particular place on a page with specified graphical attributes (color, transparency, etc.). As such producing a full PDF file editor first requires definition of what it actually means to edit such a file given the characteristics of PDF files.
That having been said, Acrobat and various third party plugins to Acrobat as well as third party applications provide some degree of editability for PDF files, recognizing that such edits are definitely not at the abstractual level that you get with InDesign. You can “touch-up” text, but doing a re-layout is effectively impossible. In most cases, it is better (in terms of time, effort, and resultant quality) to go back to the source document, make the changes there, and then regenerate the PDF.
Fonts are a totally separate issue. Adobe products will not embed any font into a PDF file unless the font allows for at least preview and print embedding. For PDF forms, Acrobat requires a font to allow editability embedding. However for text touch-up and other edits, Acrobat never uses the embedded font. Such edits are only allowed if the user has the same font actually installed on their system.
In terms of forcing a PDF file to be totally non-editable, that is done by applying security to the file when you export the PDF file from InDesign (the Security tab) or in Acrobat Pro after PDF creation (go to the Security tab under Document Properties (Ctrl-D) to set such security).

Embedded Calibri font problem in UNIX

Hi,
We have created a PDF template in Microsoft Windows. It contains properties and the values for the properties are assigned using Java through an external tool. We have embedded the Calibri font into the template. But when we try to open it in UNIX, it gives an error message saying Cannot extract the embedded font Calibri. Some characters may not display or print correctly. We are using Acrobat reader version 8.1.2 in windows and 7.0.8 in UNIX. Is the Calibri font compatible with UNIX? If its not, how can we solve this issue. Any suggestion on solving this is very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sasanga

Hi Ganesh,
Thanks for the quick response. Since those templates are client confidential we are not authorized to send those outside the organization. Appreciate if you could let me know what might be the cause of this issue.
Thanks,
Sasanga.

Cannot Embed font into InDesign PDF

I am on ID CS5 Win7 and when exporting to PDF smallest file size get this message. I bought the font form Comicraft and used it before In Ilustrator without probolem, but this is my first time using the font in InDesign.
Now I am just trying to send a pdf for client review, and can probably find a way to bitmap the pages font. My main concern will be how can I make a pdf-X for final printing?

I was surprised to find out that Comicraft allows

Can I?
Send a copy of a font to a printer only so they can image the file? This is what most all printers request, only very few accept PDF-X.
Embed the font into a PDF, and send the PDF?
Outline the font and send this legally (hate to do this cause file size gets so large, and occasionally I have them do small type changes).
RESPONSE: Any of those options are fine. If you send the fonts, please remind them to delete them when the job is finished.
thanks!
This probably differs per vendor, but wanted to share what I found out.
That's seems in direct contradiction to the information on the FAQ page. I did see on the site that they would sell you a version for the new platform for 20% of your original cost -- I'd opt to get an OpenType version.

Embedding a font without subsetting.

Hello,
I try to programmatically embed a full font into PDf in order to let the later editing of a document. What I do now is scanning through a font file and writing all the glyphs from the ttf into font stream. Also I create and write CMap using /ToUnicode entry. The size of output pdf is quite big (7 mb vs 17k for the same source file with subsetting), but when I try to edit this document I get a warning: Since the original font is not available a substituted font for editing is used.
Does it mean that I succeded to embed the complete font? Is there any mtehod or tool to verify if the font is completely embedded in a document? Otherwise, what do I lose? Maybe there excist any additional documents/refernces/guidlines for embedding the whole font besides the PDF format spec?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

The ability to edit the text in a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat has NOTHING to do with whether a font is embedded by subset or not,. Adobe Acrobat will ONLY allow editing of text in a font that is installed on the user's computer. So even if you did a full embed, if the user didn't have the font installed - it wouldn't matter.
