Embedding a font? Bug?

In this movie:
http://www.midnight007.com/pizza/layer_root_3.swf
When you click on any of the pizza slices (which pulls up
another movie layer), the dynamic titles switched by a switch
statement do not show up. They show up on any computer that the
font is ON. However, I can't get the titles to work on any other
computer. I've tried embedding the characters of the font, I've
tried linking the font from the original root movie, and I've also
tried actually writing the titles in the movie to the right of the
frame (as you will see - and those are in the correct font) - but
still the dynamic title is not showing up on computers that don't
have the font.
Any other ideas as to how to get the titles to show up?
P.S. I'm using Flash MX 2004.

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.

  • 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!

    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,
    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).

  • Embedding Adobe fonts in a folio: any issues?

    Adobe's font licensing terms/faq don't seem to address embedding Adobe fonts in a DPS folio.
    I'm assuming that folio-embedding terms will be the same as PDFs -- that is, fonts that are okay for print and preview embedding in a PDF are okay for folios, too.
    Is there an official policy for folio embedding? Anyone have this issue come up already?
    Thanks!

    There's actually two issues here that need attention. If you're just outputting to default DPS folios then the pages become for all intents and purposes images so there's no real font-related issues. The more difficult area is if you're embedding your own html files that use Adobe fonts. I'd imagine things get more coplicated here.

  • Help a novice! Embedding Custom Font in CS5

    Hi!
    Can someone help me understand how to embed a font in Dreamweaver CS5?
    A quick google search reveals instructions for embedding custom fonts in older versions of Dreamweaver but not recent ones... Is this because its somehow automated in CS5? I'm not really sure what to do! Thanks for any help!

    Can someone help me understand how to embed a font in Dreamweaver CS5
    You don't embed fonts into Dreamweaver.  You embed fonts into your web pages with CSS.
    You will need to find a suitable font. Not all commercial fonts can be embedded without violating copyrights.  Read the fine print in your license very carefully.

  • Embedded italic font using faux italic

    I'm experiencing an issue while trying to create an embedded italic font using DefineFont 4. My problem is the font I'm targetting doesn't include an italic variation. Is there a way to create an italic (or bold for that matter) font using faux italic?
    Something like:
    Embed(source='../font_src/myFont.ttf', fontName='_MyFont', cff='true', fontStyle='fauxItalic')] 
    public static var _font:Class;
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Disclaimer: I am just guessing on all of this since I have never used that font and I am still on Mac OS 10.5.8.
    Are you really on Mac OS 10.6.6? I think I read here that there were some font issues that were fixed with 10.6.7 or an update that came after it. Try downloading the updater and see what that does. Next I would try the font in Pages if you have it. If you don't, try it in TextEdit and see if it works there.
    If neither of these work, try to delete the Keynote Preferences to see if there was something there that was messing with the font. You can find it in the folder Macintosh HD>Users>your username>Library>Preferences and the file is called com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist.

  • Aperture 3 embedded color profile bug still unsolved (worked in Ap 2)

    RE: Aperture 3.x cannot display images with certain color profiles embedded. This bug was reported
    on March 11, but is still unsolved and basically makes Aperture 3 unusable for my large collection
    of scanned slides which have a special color profile embedded. Viewer and sometimes Browser turns
    either black or go haywire.
    What is it about:
    When you scan slides with a scanner, you can generate a special color profile so that the image
    looks good and you can then embed this profile in the scanned tiff and jpeg images. Most pro applications honor the embedded profile and display the image correctly. In our case, we
    generated a special profile named Nikon-LS5000 (it was tested for correctness!):
    1) It worked fine in Aperture 2.x
    2) It never worked in Aperture 3.x
    3) It does not depend on the Operating System (i.e, the bug manifests itself in 10.6.2, 10.6.3 and now in 10.6.4)
    4) It is no question of a special Mac Model (the bug shows on iMacs, ibook profs, and iMacs 2010)
    5) It is irrelevant whether you start Aperture 3 in 32-bit or 64-bit mode
    6) It shows with jpegs or tiffs, no matter
    7) Preview.app or Photoshop CS4 display the images correctly!
    8) If one changes the embedded profile via PS CS4 to sRGB or ProPhoto, Aperture 3 works (but the
    image then has radically different colors - so no solution!)
    9) The conclusion is that something affecting the processing of (some?) embedded color profiles has radically changed from Aperture 2 to Aperture 3.
    I put a few jpegs with embedded color profiles and screenshots of how Aperture 3 behaves on the Picasa web:
    http://picasaweb.google.com/114939413495021552399/TestapertureBilder#
    you are invited to download the jpeg- images and retry in your ownAperture 3 Library.
    Maybe together we can find out what causes this bug which is very annoying for any
    serious photographer.

    I have put the test material on another server - you can download a
    zipped folder (Aperture3profilebug.zip) of all test images AND the color profile from
    https://depot.uni-konstanz.de/get/txau69
    with any browser. (The problem was that the Picasa Software seems to strip the color profiles from
    the test images, so I had to put them on another server. It will remain there until July 1).
    Regards and thanks for helping

  • Problems embedding Japanese font

    I'm having problems embedding the font Ryumin-light. It's a Japanese font that is not essential to my document but I'm placing a PDF file that uses the font. I get the message that it can't be embedded at preflight. I don't have the full version of the font and even though it is listed as free at Adobe the file is missing - http://www.adobe.com/jp/support/qa/ciddown.html The publisher won't accept the document with the errors so I don't know what to do next, I'm very new to Indesign.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI - Preflight tool - error List of CIDs missing in CIDSet of embedded CID font

    Hello,
    I am generating a PDF documents with use of  Apache FOP where fonts are pasted to the document. I am getting an error "List of CIDs missing in CIDSet of embedded CID font"  and I am curious. Since the cid is not found in the provided font how acrobat is able to find the correct character?  I also run analyse which checks if all text in the file use embedded fonts and the result was fine.
    Could you explain this behaviour? 
    What kind of problems may result from missing the cids?
    Thank you for response.

    So it is (how Bill@VT said) problem of generating the result pdf document.   Does a font have to meet some requirements?  Because I can see the characters in a font viewer but after embedding I see the error.
    Also I would like to ask for correction and if I get righ how the correct character is found.
    We work with TTF fonts.
    1. For embedded fonts
    pdf file contains table  with glyf ID and glyf representation
    pdf file contains cmap which maps  Character code (unicode) and glyfID
    during rendering a file finding correct glyf is clear since we have character code
    2. CID fonts
    pdf file contains table  with glyf ID and glyf representation
    pdf file contains CID table wich maps  CID and glyfID ( CIDToGIDMap)
    pdf file contains table which maps character code (Identity-H, Unicode) to CID
    during rendering we have character code and we get CID
    based on CID is looked up character metrics
    based on CID is found glyf representation
    Is here something what I am missing or I forgot to point out?

  • Structure of an Embedded TrueType Font

    Hi,
    I read the PDF Reference document and other one about Font Programs.
    I have a question about the Embedded font program and more precisely about the embedded subset TrueType font program...
    Does an Embedded Font program/ Embedded Subset Font program must be a Font Program which respects the Font specification? ( Do all required font elements must be present in the Embedded font ?)
    I ask this question because some tools embed subset truetype font in PDF file but this embedded subset doesn't have some required tables (ex : the post table or the name table). Can we consider this kind of embedded subset font as damaged font?
    I thanks you in advance for your help.
    Eric

    An embedded font (subset or not) program is a valid font "file", HOWEVER not all of the "stand-alone" requirements need to be satisfied.  The PDF standard tells you what tables are optional and what are required.

  • Need help - problems with embedding bold fonts (Flash CS3, AS3)

    So I'm tearing my hair out over this one project where I'm
    trying to embed Arial in a project so that it can be used by two
    different dynamic text fields. Nothing I seems to do works. If I
    try embedding the font using the Properties window and set the text
    fields to bold, the text doesn't appear. If I debold the two text
    fields, the text DOES appear - but of course, without the bold. If
    I try to embed the font in the library, link it, and use two
    different TextFormat objects to format the text fields, the text
    shows up - but it isn't bold, even though I set the TextFormat.bold
    property to true.
    So what's going on here? How can I fix this?
    Thank you for your time.

    In the Library, choose 'New Font'. Select 'Arial Bold' from
    the 'Font' drop-down (don't just select Arial and click the bold
    checkbox). Select the newly added from from the Library,
    right-click and choose 'Linkage' from the context menu, and click
    'Export for ActionScript'. The Linkage field should read eg 'Arial
    Bold'.
    If you want to apply Arial Bold to an entire text field,
    select the field and, in the Font drop-down in the Property
    Inspector, look for 'Arial Bold*' (with an asterisk): this is the
    embedded version of Arial Bold that you just created.
    So, you're using a specific Bold version of the font, not
    merely setting a font to bold.

  • Adobe Acrobat NOT Embedding All Fonts...

    Hi all,
    We are using Adobe Acrobat 8.0.
    One of the Print Houses trying to print our manuals on press is having font trouble. They are claiming we have not embedded one of our fonts. Our distiller is set up so all fonts are embedded - so we have no clue why they would be having this problem. How can we even check to see if fonts are not embedded before sending out our files?
    Has anyone come across this problem before? Or have any ideas on how to solve this issue?
    Thank you,
    Tina

    Acrobat is now at version 8.1.2
    If you are having problems creating a PDF, there are two steps you should do FIRST
    Go to the appropriate vendor web site and apply all updates to the program you are using (several recent messages have concerned problems with MS Office conversion, with the response that different versions of Office have different BUGS that must be fixed by a download from Microsoft - and MS Office products are not the only ones which may, from time to time, need to be updated to work properly)
    Go to the Acrobat update page and apply the updates for your version of Acrobat
    IN NUMBER ORDER (updates are not cumulative so, using version 8 as an example, you must apply 8.1.0 before the 8.1.1 update)
