Regarding Embedded fonts

Hi All,
I have applied embedded fonts in my application using CSS file.Issue we are facing for components like Titlewindow,Panel and Alert in which Header style is not reflecting with the embedded font family instead maintaining with its default font.I have also mentioned the CSS sample below for ur reference.@font-face{
src:url("Assets/verdana.ttf");
fontFamily: TTVerdana;
advancedAntiAliasing: true;}
Application {
backgroundColor: #FFFFFF;
backgroundGradientColors: #FFFFFF, #FFFFFF;
fontFamily: TTVerdana;
themeColor: #FFFFFF;}
Note : I also tried out fontfamily style specific to TitleWindow,Panel etc in CSS as mentioned but still no effect
TitleWindow {
fontFamily: TTVerdana;
fontSize: 11;
borderAlpha: 0.44;
headerHeight: 20;}

Hi All,
Thanks for the solution.

Kindle and embedded fonts

I have studied things in this forum and elsewhere about the net regarding embedding fonts for Kindle mobi files with InDesign CS6, but nothing seems to work.
Our Institute is prepared to pay for concrete help in this regard. If anyone is interested, I would send you the fonts and a few pages for trial. Kindly write to me at [email protected] and let me know what you would charge for a successful resolution to the problem.

Font embedding is a very confusing issue because it depends on the capabilities of the EPUB reader. I really haven't had the time to learn all the fine points.
I know that it now works correctly in InDesign CC if you're targeting iBooks, but I'm not sure it's guaranteed to work on other readers. With InDesign CS6, I believe you're using the correct workaround.

Embeded fonts question

Can anyone asnwer the following regarding embedded fonts in a Flex 4 application (component):
1. Is the font file the same for Macintosh and Windows-based machines?
2. Do embedded fonts look as good as system fonts?
Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand #1. Data from the font file specified is copied
into the SWF and used by the player to render fonts on all platforms. The
OS is not handed the file to do the font rendering.
Embedded fonts are the only way to guarantee consistency between platforms
and machines. If someone doesn't have the font you want to use, on most
OS's you will get some approximation of the font. Embedded font display
quality is not controlled by font-smoothing options on the user's machine.
You should see what a non-embedded font looks like when rotated on XP with
font-smoothing off.

My computer is on a local network. When I access my computer as a local user, Firefox does not render any @font-face embedded font correctly for any website.

I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling, creating a clean profile, and other things. The CSS is correct because it works for every other supported browser...event this particlar installation when used with a network login. Other computers on our network (but not ALL) seem to have similar problems, but only when someone logs on to the machine locally (not via Windows Active Directory).
The browser attempts to render the embedded font, but it appears jagged, so it's not that the CSS isn't getting seen, the browser just doesn't render it smoothly. Are there any particular settings that I should look at? On every machine I've tested, both the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled (true) and gfx.use_text_smoothing_setting (false) configuration settings have been the same.
I realize that there could be some differences regarding network local computer policy for network logins vs. local logins, but I have no idea how that might pertain to Firefox specifically.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. <br>
See '''Creating a profile''':

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem <br>

Problem with embedding fonts in Illustrator CS5

I have just installed Illustrator CS5, and have tested creating a PDF document based on one of my existing files, as well as a new file.
When I open these PDF documents in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, I am told that Acrobat cannot access one of the embedded fonts (Korinna BT).
I have had no issues with embedding this font in Illustrator CS4, and (strangely), when I open these files in other PDF viewers (Preview and PDFPenPro), they report no issues.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
I have removed and reinstalled the font in question, and tested/verified that the font is OK - but still not joy.
Regards
Jeremy

The error message I get is:
"Cannot extract the embedded font 'MVZTIW+KorinnaITCbyBT-Regular'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
When I check the fonts in the PDF in "Document Properties" in Adobe Acrobat the following is shown:
"KorinnaITCbyBT-Regular
     Type: TrueType
     Encoding: Ansi
     Actual Font: Adobe Serif MM
     Actual Font Type: Type 1"
It seems that Illustrator is adding some strange "code" ('MVZTIW') to the beginning of the font, which means the actual font can't be found and extracted.

I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro. The application keeps timing out and at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes. The document is 275 pages. Is there something I can do to stop this?

Hi Ricci,
Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

Fully embedding fonts in PDF

Hi,
I had a piece of information but I can't seem to find it anymore so I have to ask ...
This is about understanding limitations of fully embedding fonts in a PDF (from Indesign Server). Actually it's about one limitation in particular. I know fonts with licensing issues or fonts that are marked "embedded not allowed" will not be embedded. Also, there is a threshold that I need to set.
So, I recall reading somewhere that Indesign will not fully embed "standard" fonts. Is that correct and what is this standard fonts category?
Oh, reading through some posts, I noticed lots of people and experts ask why does one need fully embedded fonts. That's a good question and I don't know the root reason but in my case it seems that some regulatory agencies (in the life sciences/pharma domain) require PDFs with fully embedded fonts.
Many thanks
Cristian

On behalf of Adobe:
(1)     For both InDesign “PDF export” (including InDesign Server) and Illustrator “save as PDF” functions, most but not all of the .joboptions file font embedding options are totally and utterly ignored. The options that are ignored are the Embed all fonts, Embed OpenType fonts, Always embed, and Never embed. Those options are observed by Distiller and the PDFMaker components of Acrobat.
(2)     These applications will attempt to embed all fonts referenced by the document, regardless of the settings of the .joboptions file. The only reason why a font would not be embedded in a PDF file would be if (a) the font was unavailable (i.e., not installed on the system) or (b) the font's embedding permissions do not permit embedding for at least preview and print privileges. Thus, if you use the so-called Standard .joboptions (strongly not recommended for any graphic arts purposes), even the base 14 fonts (four faces each of Helvetica, Times, and Courier along with Symbol and ITC Zapf Dingbats will be embedded if your document references them.
(3)     The subset threshold value of 0 (zero) may effectively cause all the glyphs of a font to be embedded in some, but not all cases. This will work for many if not most Type 1 fonts and some smaller TrueType and OpenType CFF fonts. Note that embedding all glyphs in a font is not the same as embedding a full font. For OpenType and TrueType fonts, InDesign and Illustrator never embed all the tables of the font. Such unembedded tables include those used for pair kerning, advanced OpenType features (such as ligatures, alternate representations, contextual alternates, small caps, old style figures, etc.), and extended metrics.
(4)     There are plenty of bubbameissas out there with regards to the benefits or liabilities of either fully embedding or subset embedding fonts. What is true is that: (a) Acrobat never uses the embedded font for text editing - you must have the font installed on the system in order to do such edits. (b) Subset embedding or not is totally irrelevant to what a RIP does when rendering text, either for PostScript or direct PDF RIPs. Neither subset or full embedding is any more reliable than the other and the specifications of PostScript and PDF do not permit the RIP to replace the embedded font with a font with a similar name - urban legend notwithstanding!!!! (c) Third party plug-ins to Acrobat or applications that claim to allow you to edit PDF files with embedded fonts may be illegally letting you do so if the embedding permissions do not permit embedding for editable embedding or installable embedding - most fonts do not provide such embedding permissions and since the fonts are missing metric information, such editing may be somewhat lacking in quality or features.
(5)     In fact some very non-tech-savvy organizations have posted requirements for full embedding of fonts in submitted PDF files (I have personally seen one such requirement by some international bureaucracy). They can post such bone-headed requirements based on limited understanding of PDF and PDF workflows, but that doesn't mean that anybody actually provides such PDF files. If in fact you run into such requirements, I would appreciate it if references to same can be forwarded to my attention by private message on these forums.

Cannot extract the embedded font 'ABCDEE+Arial'

When creating a PDF, we keep getting errors in Adobe reader 11 with the above font error.
When I view the properties of the PDF, we can see that both Arial fonts and courier fonts are unknown. This happens even if we make a pdf that is entirely blank.
These PDFs read fine in Reader X, it is only 11 that is giving us issue.
Suggestions? The PDFs are created in our proposal tool. PDFs that do no add any of our marketing pieces, do not give us this error. PDFs that do include our marketing pieces, throw the error.
We have tried making the PDFs using Acrobat (latest version) as well as using MS Word 2013.. with the same issue.

Hey k%20street,
There seems to be a font issue within this particular file, but you cannot do anything using only Reader.
So, as long as it displays correctly, there should be no problem with printing. It is simply a warning that apparently something was a miss in an embedded font and result might not be as expected.

Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some char might not be displayed

Hi Folks,
              Our requirement is to generate the customer account statement for a set of cusomters during a particular period.
                     we use a script to generate the statement and convert it to pdf.This pdf is then stored in the application server and retrived using cg3y transaction.The transaction allows the statement to be generated for multiple customers and company code.
the problem that we face is that the first customer account statement is generated properly the rest of the statements are not displayed properly.When we open the customer account statement we get the error 'Cannot extract the embedded font arial.Some characters might not be displayed properly'.All the Headings that we of the font BOLD ARIAL were not displayed.
This error does not occur for the first pdf file generated.(say we have 3 customers for the 1st customer pdf is proper however for the next two error'.
                     When I checked the application server I found that the first file has font subtype as Type1 and then rest of the files have font subtype as Truetype.
This is working fine.I downloaded the file to pc using cg3y.the pdf looks fine.

Hi,
this can be related to the compression of the PDF file.
You can turn off the FlateDecode compression again via report RSTXPDF3 as described in Note #843480. It is a little confusing. The option 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' needs to be set to 'On' to turn off the FlateDecode compression.
To set this please run as follows:
se38 -> RSTXPDF3 -> enter 'FLATE_COMPR_OFF' in the 'Name' field -> Select 'Change Settings' radio button
You will get a pop-up 'Do not use flat compression'.
Select the 'on' button.
After this check if the PDF is created correctly.
regards,
Aidan

Get the "cannot extract embedded fonts" error message

I get the "Cannot extract embedded font 'UZNVZW+HElveticaNeueLTStd-Hv-Identity-H'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." error message when I generate a PDF from MadCap Flare or Frame Maker. I am on Windows 8 64-bit / Adobe Acrobat 11 / FrameMaker 9 / MAdCap Flare 9.
When I do the same task on a Windows 7 system, works like a whistle.
I am looking at a solution and no workarounds.

Embedding Font

Hi,
                  I am embedding the font verdana to a textField. But its not getting worked. Also i have used the linkage to actionscript with the embedding font. The following code i have used for embedding. Can anybody help me by notifying the problem.
/*var textFormat = new TextFormat();
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.embedFonts = true;
    textFormat.font = "verd";
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.setTextFormat(textFormat); */
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.text = title;
Thanks and Regards,
                Sreelash.

if your text property has already been assigned to your textfield, use setTextFormat(). if you have you're going to assign the text property after assigning a textformat, use setNewTextFormat:
var textFormat = new TextFormat();
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.embedFonts = true;
    textFormat.font = "verd";
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.setNewTextFormat(textFormat);
    videoHolderMC.videoFrame.titleMC.titleTxt.text = title;

Hi Markus ,
It is a problem with the pdf file being encoded as ascii by the email program when it is really binary. The way to get around the problem is to zip the file or use a different email program or change the encoding method if possible.

Refying PDF with subset embedded fonts fixes text extraction

Hi All,
I know it is not a good idea to (just) refry PDF files (PDF -> EPS -> PDF). Especially when the PDF contains subset embedded fonts. Chances are you will end up with a PDF file which does not contain valid (searchable) text.
I did not know the apposite could also be true. The following zip file contains 2 PDF files echo containing two words: the original and the refried version.
Refried.zip
When selecting text from the original PDF (using acrobat 6 through X) file it contains incorrect text, in this case invalid capitals. If I try the same in the refried version the extracted text is correct.
It seems strange to me that a process which only can result in loss of information "fixes" this text issue. Somewhere the correct text must be hidden in the original PDF file. Not only capitals seem to be effected but also random characters which seem to be fixed once refried.
Could anyone think of an explanation?
Is there a workaround without having to refry the PDF (refrying often results in loss of information). I have no influence on the PDF files I recieve, therefore I cannot embed the full fonts.
I am using de C++ SDK for Acrobat to write plugins.
Any pointers would be great!
Kind regards,
Robert

Thanks again for your reply,
Your explanation makes sense.
I went ahead and removed the tounicode cmap just to see what would happen
if (CosDictKnown (cosFont, ASAtomFromString ("ToUnicode")))
CosDictRemove (cosFont,ASAtomFromString ("ToUnicode"));
As you predicted this fixes some issues and introduces new ones.
The results differed from the refry method, in some cases the refried PDF did not contain extractable text, in other cases the PDF without "ToUnicode Cmap" had no extractable text.
Maybe I could combine the information of different text extraction methods to make an educated gues which one (or combination of) is best :S
I suppose looking at individual textruns (with all its complexity) would not help me either...
Kind regards,
Robert
