Rene, Unfortunately, without seeing the font file itself, it would be very difficult to know how or why this problem is occurring.
I will assume that this "Bullets3" font is in fact technically (if not legally) embeddable (that the "fsType" field in the OS/2 table of the TrueType font is set for either "no embedding restrictions", "edittable embedding", or "preview and print embedding). In terms of whether Distiller "sees" the font, the issue may be as to where you let Windows install the font. If the font was NOT copied to C:\WINDOWS\FONTS during installation (i.e., you used the "don't copy font" option of the Windows font installer), you may need to go into Distiller and manually add the path of the directory containing the "Bullets3" font. A temporary workaround might be to reconfigure the AdobePDF PostScript printer driver instance such that the option to "not embed fonts in the PostScript" is NOT checked. To do this, go to the AdobePDF Properties and in the General tab, click on Printing Preferences and go to the Adobe PDF Settings tab. There, disable the option for NOT putting fonts in the print stream. You would also need to repeat this in the Properties Advanced tab, clicking on Printing Defaults and similarly fixing that setting under its Adobe PDF Settings tab. - Dov > -----Original Message----- > From: Rene S. > Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2006 3:13 PM > To: 'framers List' > Subject: FM to Distiller font problems > > Hi All, > > I have a font (Bullets3.ttf) that is *not* restricted for > embedding and that is licensed to us that won't embed.
