Things to Consider…

  • Font Encoding
  • Known encodings
  • Such as

Things to Consider…

  • Becoming a commodity
  • Can store more information

available

  • PDF font resource will embed the font as

an OpenType.

Things to Consider…

  • Font Embedding
  • Full or Subset embed?
  • Both have their advantages
  • PDF/X-1a requires full embedding
  • Font Resource
  • Stores all info on the characters and

glyphs used to visualize

  • Can corrupt sometimes

Convert Text to Outlines

  • We use the font resource
  • Which means…

  • We don’t
  • Outline Type3 fonts
  • You can warn about missing glyphs (Non-

def characters)
