Hi,
I want to create a PDF but the fonts should not be embedded to the PDF. When
I open the PDF it should take the font from my default OS fonts folder (e.g.
C:\Winnt\Fonts). With the attached userconfig.xml and the font metric
(arial.xml), I'm able to create a PDF with the Arial font, but this is
always embedded in to the created PDF. How can I created a PDF so that the
font is not embedded in to PDF and it will take the font from the OS fonts
folder? (assuming that the fonts are installed in the machine)
Have you tried creating the PDF file without using userconfig.xml & font metrics files? Perhaps that will just work?
If you must use a font different from Base-14 Fonts[1], it may be necessary to embed the font to ensure the integrity of page displayed is maintained. The Base-14 Fonts[1] defined in the Adobe PDF Spec are:
Helvetica (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Times (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Courier (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Symbol and ZapfDingbats
