Summary | 0016413: Enable embedding OpenType fonts in PDF/X-4 | ||||
Description | Files in the PDF/X-4 format generated with scribus 1.5.6.1 seem to be based on PDF v. 1.5. But the export to PDF/X-4 should be based on PDF v. 1.6 (please see https://www.pdfa.org/pdfx-in-a-nutshell/ ) rather than PDF v. 1.5. In the current exporter no embedding of OTF-Fonts is possible with PDF/X-4. | ||||

>> But the export to PDF/X-4 should be based on PDF v. 1.6 There is a fundamental misunderstanding about what "based on" means, especially in case of PDF/X which is a subset of PDF specifications. The way we export PDF/X-4 uses PDF 1.5 functionalities, so there is no need to mark our exported PDF as PDF 1.6. And this is perfectly fine: Enfocus Pitstop and Adobe Acrobat both validate our PDF/X-4 export. As for OpenType fonts, they are subsetted in our PDF/X-4 export and this is perfectly fine too. |
