5. I have a graphical TTF font that I use for bullets and a couple of graphics, but it doesn't stick to the document using 'Embed True Type Fonts'. Any ideas? (Yes, there is a style for it in the template.) If you don't get an answer to this, here, try in the word.printingfonts newsgroup. The font in question is set for "No Embedding Allowed." (Text below snipped from word.printingfonts.) John Thomas Ferguson wrote: Either TrueType or OpenType fonts can be embedded depending on the permission level set in the font file. As a matter of Copyright, font file owners have the sole right to determine if the font is to be embeddable, and if so, at what level of use. TrueType fonts have embedding permissions encoded within them that determine how they can be used by tools that convert them into the embedded font format. There are four levels of font embedding: a.. No-embedding permissions are used by a small proportion of available fonts. The creators of these fonts have decided not to allow embedding. Some foundries set their fonts to no-embedding, but offer upgrades to embeddable versions. If you come across a no-embedding font that you would like to use, contact the supplier and ask about a possible upgrade. b.. Print and preview fonts can be embedded, but do not allow editing. c.. Editable fonts can be embedded and fully edited but are only temporarily installed on the system. d.. Installable fonts are installed and remain on the system. In order to know if the font is embeddable and at what level, you would have to contact the supplier or creator or have a sample you can examine using the TrueType properties shell extension available from Microsoft's typography site on the www. http://www.microsoft.com/typography/...sOverview.mspx Tom MSMVP Windows shell/user |
