[CS3] [os X] Package doesn't embed fonts of linked files

Hi,
Does any have a solution for this problem:
Create a package of document containing a native illustrator file, doesn't collect the fonts of the illustrator file in the package.
Creating a package of a document containing a EPS-file, saved from Illustrator and using the option "don't include fonts", collects all the fonts of the illustrator file...
Does anyone have a solution for this problem ?
Using an external application for collection the fonts does the trick but I would like to do this from within Indesign...
Thanx
Tim

I was under the impression that unrestricted fonts would be embedded in a CS3 .ai file, and that you could specify that for .ai or .eps in early versions that didn't do it automatically, making it unnecessary to package them (licensing issues aside). Restricted fonts wouldn't be included in a package in any case, so...

Problème avec Indesign CC, je n'arrive pas à faire un PACKAGE complet, Message : cannot copy necessary linked files(s). Pourtant les liens sont bien mis à jour dans le document. Je n'ai jamais eu de problèmes avec mon ancienne version CS.

Pouvez-vous m'aider?

La première chose à faire est de vérifier si un des fichiers placés dans le document InDesign ne comprend pas de caractères « interdits » dans son nom (barre oblique, deux-points, etc.)

CS3/AS2 -Text Scroll Box Cannot Embed Font, Need To Link Font From Server??

Hi all - ok here goes somethin
So I bought a text scroller flash file and am now trying to tailor it to my needs.
This is it: http://activeden.net/item/dynamic-external-text-scroll-with-easing/2612
It is composed of several movieclips which link to the an external text file. The external file starts off with this
mytext= <font color="#000000" size="7">BACKGROUND</font>
This file determines the size and color of the font but does not define the actual font itself, it also contains the content. There is a movieclip within the flash file where you can denote a device font or embed a font from the properties panel.
Starting off I simply picked my font from the properties panel and used "anti-alias for animation". This seemed to work fine on the Flash preview and also once published online. However, once I used another computer to view my site the font changed and reverted to a default. This leads me to believe the font is linked to each computers font library. I am wondering if there is a way to override this and to link the font to a place on my server?
I also tried to embed my font via the properties panel but it looks warped and unrecognizable, so thats out. Unless there is another way to embed fonts that stays true to the font?
To add more fuel to the fire, the font I have to use is not html safe .. "Gotham" to be exact.
You can see the issue here on the 'about' and 'links' page
http://nicoleginelli.com/weeks/index_9.html
Help meeeeee!
- Nicole

I tried this but the text looks warped and much different than it should. Seems anyway I embed it in the properties panel looks this way.. any other options??

Moving js and embed code into linked files

Hello all,
I am trying to "optimize" some of my web pages by moving as
much code as possible into linked files. I'm using Flash 8 in
conjunction with Dreamweaver 8. I am also employing some DW
behaviors, like swap image, that generate javascript.
I am wondering if it's possible to put the javascript code
and all the code thats generated to embed Flash movies into a page
into a linked file, and if so, how?
Any direction will be much appreciated,
Scott

Illustrator CC doesn´t embed fonts

Hi,
Im having issues when saving as .eps. Illustrator CC doesnt embed the fonts so when I print (I work with large format printing) all the type is messed up. No issues with CS6 on this matter.
Also saving as Illustrator 8 doesnt work either. Other applications I use for cutting vinyl and so on only crashes. The EXACT same file exported via CS6 with the same setting works perfectly.
CC is USELESS for me at the moment!

Oh, but just look at all the cool new features.

How to embed fonts in XDP files

Is there any way I can embed the Arial Narrow fonts in the xdp files?
Is it true that If the fonts are embedded in the xdp files then the pdf generated from that xdp will populate the font correctly even though that particular font is not installed? What about printing that pdf? If the font shows correctly on the scree, will it print correct too?
Some of our clients are having issues printing the pdf which has Arial Narrow fonts. It prints gibberish.
I have attached a pdf whoch shows gibberish letters.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The fonts will be embedded as long as the vendor of the fonts allows it. Even they are embeddable then yes the font will display properly on machines that do not have the font installed.....but note that your PDF will be much bigger becaise the font is embedded.

Embed fonts(Barcode) while generating Reports in PDF

Hi Everyone,
I have browsed through the similar topics and found that many have the opinion that embeding the fonts in Reports is not possible. But What if there is a report in PDF with a number in Barcode font to be mailed to a destination which does not have the font installed on the PC. Fonts cannot be sent across as they are protected by copyright. Thousands of recipients cannot be asked to buy the font.
Please help me with a work around.
Thanks

hello,
starting with 9i, oracle reports is able to embed fonts into PDF files. it uses font subsetting to add the font definitions used in the particular file to the file itself, so you can display the document although you might not have the fonts installed.
at the moment (in 6i) this feature is not there. a way around that yould be to use adobes PDFwrite to produce the PDFs. it is also able to embed fonts into the document.
regards,
the oracle reports team

Embed fonts in Flash CS3 and load in Flex at runtime

Hi,
I want to embed fonts in the library of Flash CS3, compile it into a SWF and load it in my flex up at runtime and register the embedded font.
I'm able to get the linked class in Flex but the font doesn't show.
The FLA has a font called Viner Hand embedded as a library item, with linkage VinerHand and baseclass as flash.text.Font
Here's the code in flex to register the font -
var FontLibrary:Class = ApplicationDomain((event.target as LoaderInfo).applicationDomain).getDefinition('VinerHand') as Class;
Font.registerFont(FontLibrary);
When I do Font.enumerateFonts after this, I see [Font VinerHand] in the array but the textField doesn't show the font embedded.

Embed font example for CS3

I'm trying to use the following script to embed a font in a CS3 flash file. When I publish and preview it, all I get is a blank screen :S Can someone tell me if this script is valid for AS3/CS3?
Thanks.
package {
//import flash.util.describeType;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.text.AntiAliasType;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
import flash.text.TextFormatAlign;
   public class Test extends MovieClip {
      // be sure this is pointing to a ttf font in your hardrive
      [Embed(source="Arial.ttf", fontFamily="foo", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype")]
      public var bar:String;
      public function Test() {
          var format:TextFormat          = new TextFormat();
          format.font              = "foo";
          format.color                = 0xFFFFFF;
          format.size                 = 130;
          var label:TextField         = new TextField();
          label.embedFonts            = true;
          label.autoSize              = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

          label.defaultTextFormat     = format;
          label.text                  = "Hello World!";
          addChild(label);
          trace(label.text);
          label.setTextFormat(format);

Im not sure if u can do it with flash cs3.
i change a little ur code to :
package {
//import flash.util.describeType;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.text.AntiAliasType;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
import flash.text.TextFormatAlign;
import flash.text.Font;
   public class Test extends MovieClip {
      // be sure this is pointing to a ttf font in your hardrive
      [Embed(source="arial.ttf", fontFamily="foo", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype")]
      public var arialfont:Class;
      public function Test() {
          Font.registerFont(arialfont)
            var format:TextFormat          = new TextFormat();
          format.font              = "foo";
          format.color                = 0xFFFFFF;
          format.size                 = 130;
          var label:TextField         = new TextField();
          label.embedFonts            = true;
          label.autoSize              = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
          label.antiAliasType         = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
          label.defaultTextFormat     = format;
          label.text                  = "Hello World!";
          addChild(label);
          trace(label.text);
          label.setTextFormat(format);
and it works fine with flash cs4, only first time it will ask to confirm flex sdk location ( have to have flex sdk to use embed, u can downlaod it free from adobe.com)
hope that helps

Embed fonts on classic TextField doesn't work, even with TextFormat applied

Hi.
I created an Item that extends MovieClip and that has a TextField on it where it where it will display the item's name. I want to embed the font but I'm having trouble because the text won't display.
I read the embedFonts description (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/text/TextField.ht ml#embedFonts) and I have formatted the TextField via a TextFormat instance with my chosen font.
My code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.text.AntiAliasType;
    import flash.text.TextField;
    import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
    import flash.text.TextFormat;
    public class Item extends MovieClip {
        private var _sName:String = "";
        private var _txtName:TextField = new TextField();
        private var _nColor:uint = 0xAACC00;
        private var _tfText:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
        public function Item(s:String) {
            //also tried embedding here but got the same result
            _txtName.text = s;
            _txtName.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.RIGHT;
            _tfText.font = "Helvetica";
            _tfText.size = 30;
            _tfText.color = _nColor;
            _txtName.setTextFormat(_tfText);
            _txtName.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
            _txtName.embedFonts = true;
            addChild(_txtName);
If I remove the embed part the text shows correctly. I'm at a loss, what order of elements do I need to use to embed the font correctly?
Thank you.

To use the embedFonts property you would have to use an actual embedded font. The way you have it coded it is using system fonts.
I did a quick Google Search and this seems to explain how to embed fonts in AS3 quite well:

Flash CS3 fl.* package cannot be used in Flex Builder 3

Hi,
I was very disappointed to find out that one cannot import
the fl.* package, which is available for flash CS3. I found a work
around by creating swc file and importing them, however it's
disappointing that flash CS3 would have such a major advantage over
Flex Builder 3 when building an Action Script 3.0 Application.
Best, E

I've looked over that sample.
Part of the problem is that I don't have access to
mx.effects. I think this is because that example is a Flex 3
Project and has a MXML file attributed to it. I opened a Flex 3
project and was able to access mx.effects - but my project is
different in that it's an ActionScript project - meaning, I opened
an ActionScript project in Flex Builder 3. Apperantly the
ActionScript projects don't have access to mx.effects.Tween. And
niether do they have access to fl.transitions.Tween. It's strange -
and I'm trying to find a way to access them by connecting the build
path to the Tween classes somehow.
My project preferences already have the fl.* folders in the
build path. It just still doesn't seem to work.

Embed fonts not available error (But they are available sysetm fonts)

Hello!
I tried to search and actually did found some answers regarding font problems, but they did not help. So I am explaining here my problem in hope that someone can help me.
My company bought a HP Xeon X3450 @ 2.8Ghz. @Gb RAM DD3 1333 with Windows 7 64-Bits version Professional.
We installed Adobe CS3 Suite on Windows 7 64-Bits version and the problems with fonts started.
We used to work with XP Professional before this new machine arrived and never had system fonts propblems with Adobe CS3 Suite.
Basically, what happens is:
When I try to open PDF files with embed fonts (system fonts susch as ARIAL for example) the program returns an error saying that the fonts are not installed/available, but checking the C:\windows\fonts, they are there and working fine on Office or other common application such as notepad for example.
I tried the workaround I found on these very forums of copying the fonts to the folder C:\Program Fils\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts and it still does not work.
Formated the HD and then installed Windows 7 32 bits (x86) and still have the same problems. All updates were made and applied to Adobe and Windows respectively for both 64 and 32 versions and the error still happens.
In resume, fonts are installed, they are system fonts but under Windows 7 64 or 32 bits versions they simply do not work when opening the PDF files with embed fonts.
-The PDFs had no problems before while running windows XP Professional.
-The PDFs open whithout any problems on machines with Windows Xp Professional.
-This is happening specifically in Adobe Illustrator CS3 and CS5 and Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 and 9.
Please, I urge for help since we don't know what to do anymore.
Thank you all who took time to read this and forgive my terrible english, it is not my first language.
Best regards,

Andre,
What I believe you have is 2 different versions of Arial, you old machine probably contains the version you need.
By old version, I mean one could by true type(XP), and another Opentype (WIn 7), and the error comes up. Even though they have they same name (Eg: Arial Bold).
There are even old version of fonts that are both of the same font technology format and have different FOND ID numbers(Eg: Frutiger was one that I often encountered, but you don't see this problem that much nowadays).

How to Embed Fonts and make Grayscale in Acrobat Pro 9 PDF

I supplied my printer with a PDF but he says that I need to "Embed The Fonts" in the PDF.
I made the original document in MS WORD and then I created the PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 but nowhere
along the way did I see anything that asked me to Embed The Fonts.
He also says that the type is in RGB but it needs to be in Grayscale.
When I created the PDF I didn't see any option along the way that gave me a choice between
RGB and Grayscale.
Any ideas how to achieve these two effects while going from an MS WORD document to a PDF using
Acrobat Pro 9 please?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Sorry to bother you with my problem but I wondered if you could explain a little bit more about things I didn't understand.
1 - you said > On a Mac there is no advantage to using the Word plug-in.
Do you mean that I can type directly into Acrobat?
I thought that a document needed to be created in a word processor first before I could turn it into a PDF.
Is that incorrect then?
2 - > Create the pdf file a print file menu gives you greater control.
I do apologize but I did not understand this statement either, could you please expand on it a little (to a non-techie.)
3 - > If you use the Press job option setting, the fonts will be embedded.
I can't find Press job option setting anywhere - I am using Acrobat pro 9 but there doesn't seem to be a menu with Press
anywhere, could you please expand on this a little bit too please.
4 - > If the pdf file has already been created it can be converted to greyscale using the Preflight or Convert Colors
under Advanced -> Print Production.
I understood this part and I executed it according to your instructions so thank you for that.
Unfortunately I couldn't find out how to embed my fonts and my printer charged me $75 to do that
so I was pretty upset about not being able to understand that part of your explanation.
Since the printer was able to embed the fonts in a document that was already a PDF then it must be possible
to embed fonts after a PDF has been created, is that correct?
If that is correct then i don't know how I could not find how to do it because I looked everywhere for that
ability but I could not find how to do it.
I'd be very grateful for any further help you could give, thank you.

How to embed fonts in PowerPoint?

Is it possible to embed fonts in a PowerPoint presentation?

I just spent a half an hour looking through the menus and Help and I couldn't find an option to enable that feature. It doesn't seem to be available. But, that doesn't mean it's not possible. There are certainly work-arounds, like printing your slide show and then choosing to save as a PDF. The PDF could be displayed with Acrobat Reader on any computer and the fonts would be imbedded.

How do you embed fonts in a Captivate 6 interaction?

I've created an interaction using AR Cena font (which is loaded on my machine), but when a colleague displays the published version on her computer the font I have used does not display. It is published out as a zip file and loaded into our LMS. Any suggestions or solutions would be great.

To answer your question directly, you cannot directly embed fonts used in an InDesign document into that document itself with the following exception. If you place a PDF or EPS file with embedded fonts into an InDesign document, those fonts remain embedded; you don't need to have any other copy of those fonts available to view, print, or export to PDF.
As indicated by another responder, packaging an InDesign document can provide a means of moving fonts with the document, albeit as separate files in the package (of course, limited to your licensing rights to those fonts).
