Reading what's there I don't have high hopes that you can load CEF fonts. See also: http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/50568.htm If we were able to figure out in what specification CEF is documented and the embedded font data were a full Type 1 font, it shouldn't be hard to extract it from a stream. I currently don't see through there: CEF, CFF, Type 2, TrueType, OpenType, blah, blah, blah. A real mess. On 15.06.2005 15:35:37 Thomas DeWeese wrote: > Hi All, > > Just to throw in my 2 cents.
