Currently Scribus handles subsetting fonts as converting to vectors. You can control that behaviour via PDF Export->Fonts. Furthermore, there's a global option in Preferences->Fonts which controls subsetting. It is on by default for CJK fonts. In two cases Scribus must unconditionally use subsetting: * OTF fonts * Some TTF fonts which don't have proper PS names > what i mean is, i cannot hightlight/select the text, it is like an > image > > when i check the font list in adobe reader, it is empty That is to be expected for subsetted fonts. We will fix that later during 1.3.x development. /Andreas
