How to Embed Fonts in PDF Files
A PDF file, a format developed by Adobe, has been adapted as a standard way to share and view documents. PDF files are often preferred over other document formats because you cannot easily edit them and the visual formatting of the document remains relatively consistent from one computer to another. One way to further ensure that the document remains consistent across computers is to embed font into the PDF file. Therefore, regardless of what fonts are installed on a computer, the font you embed will display in the file.
