(And this is not a solution! :o)) In nowadays it is the client who choose the specific printing office, my situation is the same. That printing house demands expecially this: PDF file must be version *1.3* Embed the typeface in the document along with the image data. Avoid using OPI commentaries! The typefaces used may be of the following standards: * Type1*, *TrueType*, *and Opentype*. As a matter of principle, the data is provided as a composite (not separated). Formats other than PDF are accepted only after prior agreement. The PDF provided file should especially not contain any kind of meta-information, hypertext link, etc. Everyone in printing industry *knows* what does it mean "to embed fonts", it is similar like when somebody wants pdf x-1a file (in printing industry the standard). I am not a programmer, I don't know what does it mean in a code point of view. Trust me, embedding of fonts is the standard ("if you are not able to provide us the file as we need, your client should find another typesetter" - who typesets in InDesign). InDesign subsets typically just fonts used for texts where is not used 100 % of alphabet (pdf export settings). Honza P. S. Some inspiration could maybe provide the Scribus, it has nice pdf export possibilities, better than InDesign itself! P. P. S. I have sent this to Hans and after that found your answers here, so I am sending similar info.

I'm curious what Luigi thinks of this (as he works at a lerge printing house). > Embed the typeface in the document along with the image data. Avoid using > OPI commentaries!

Formats other than PDF are > accepted only after prior agreement. I wonder what they mean with 'standards' ... take openstype: only some splines are included and some width information. So, say that they want zapfino to be fully included: they get megabytes of shapes, completely unorganized (apart from maybe the fact that one can tell what unicode or sequence of unicode it is). No feature data, no kerning, etc. So, this demand for 'full embedding' to me more sounds like weird. > The PDF provided file should especially not contain any kind of > meta-information, hypertext link, etc. that's easy, although even a version 1.3 *only* viewer (if you can still find one) is supposed to ignore annotations it does not know [i could imagine no objects streams but one can easilly convert a 1.X file into a 1.y file using acrobat] > Everyone in printing industry *knows* what does it mean "to embed fonts", > it is similar like when somebody wants pdf x-1a file (in printing industry > the standard). sure, but I'm not so sure if everyone expects one to embed all that unused information (btw, so far we never had to provide a specific pdf/x version so there are printing houses that are flexible enough to deal with it) > I am not a programmer, I don't know what does it mean in a code point of > view.

There’s not so much wrong about PDF/X-1 and -3. I guess the "full font embedding" is just a misunderstanding. The instructions Honza quoted didn’t say "full". I experienced a lot of printshops whose instructions were for office- type laymen and just utterly wrong for professionals*, e.g. to deliver single page pdfs or to convert all fonts to curves.

The only obscure issue with fonts embedding is the fact that at least for pdf1.4 it was a "bad practice" (let's says so) to embed one of the 14 Postscript "standard" fonts Courier,Courier-Bold,Courier-Oblique,Courier-BoldOblique,Helvetica,Helvetica-Bold,Helvetica-Oblique,Helvetica-BoldOblique,Times-Roman,Times-Bold,Times-Italic,Times-BoldItalic,Symbol,ZapfDingbats (the Base-14 Fonts) but pdf/a-* which is pdf 1.4 based requires that all the font *must* be correctly embed, even one of the Base-14 fonts. So, a pdf1.4 with, let's say, only helvetica correctly embed, can be theoretically marked as "bad" (not wrong, just bad) if checked versus a generic 1.4 version compliant, but right (at least form the point of view of fonts) if checked as pdf/a-1 . But it's so dependant to the pdf-checker that we can say that if the last release of Acrobat say it's ok, than you can say that it's ok. (incidentally, that's why in this situation I use Nimbus whenever I can, to avoid such kind of noises). -- luigi ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

When using map files '<<fontfile' should tell the engine to fully embed the font, but since MkIV does not use map files you can't use this. Alternatively, font table passed from lua to pdf backed have an 'embedding' key and setting it to 'full' should fully embed the font, but I don't know if MkIV provides a way to control this.

Even if the case, it's not the common practice. I don't have the last scribus at hand, but I will check if it permits the complete embedding of the font even if the licence says it's not possible. -- luigi [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 1471 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 485 bytes --] ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread
