For many years, I've been using Scribus to create a weekly newsletter, for an APA I'm a involved with. Until recently, I embedded the fonts I was using when creating the .pdf, because I use Linux, and the person printing them out and collating the APA uses Windows. A few months ago, this stopped working and I had to switch to outlining the fonts instead, which not only works fine, it creates a much smaller file.

However, the official collator has been arguing that outlining a font means that each letter is hollow and that it can't possibly have the effect that it clearly does have. (He's more than a tad narrow minded in general, so for him this isn't unusual.) I'd appreciate it if somebody could explain just what the term means in this context so that I can 'splain things to him and everybody else in the APA. Thanx in advance for any useful information you can get to me.
