Hello, 

Just had a print job returned with quite a few errors, especially with a few specialized fonts. I created an OP preset specifically for the job and it seems that the FONTS were NOT embedded in the PDF file. 

Also when running preflght I am getting some errors when a different (symbol) font is pasted into a paragraph with the main font Bodoni.

Here is a sample of the export preset.

 

How can I check the PDF to ensure that the TypeFaces are indeed embeded (MAC OSX VENTURA)

 

Thanks in advance to this great (about to get better??) community. 


David

Perhaps the fonts don't allow embedding?

not so simple to download

Yeah, I know. I wasn't "worthy" a license on my first attempt either. It has worked on a second attempt some time later though.

What was different about your second attempt? I would have thought that you either qualify or you don’t!

ghostscript eg
gswin64 -dPDFINFO EmbeddedFonts.pdf
will produce this output on screen, haven't worked out how to write it to file

I have no clue. Only the time that passed, about 20 months.
