Default Embedding a font in a document .

Email yourself a copy, and see if you can edit it.

Now try it again on a computer that does NOT have the font concerned
installed.

It may be that the font is not "embeddable". Fonts are coded with various
levels of permission. Some won't allow you to embed them. Some will allow
you to display or print but not to edit.

When you say the recipient cannot edit the file, what exactly happens when
they try?
