Summary | 0010972: impossible to embed some of the Microsoft fonts | ||||
Description | It's impossible to embed Calibri, Cambria and Constantia fonts. As a consequence, user can't select/copy text written by these fonts. It's not probably the font problem because InDesign works as expected. | ||||

Duplicate of 0008950. Please check that issue for further explanation. |

I tested it. Unchecking in preferences > fonts is not a solution. It works in other fonts but not in MS fonts. Everything seems to be ok when Scribus exports the PDF (Save as PDF dialog). But when I check this PDF in Adobe Reader or other PDF readers, font is not embedded and I can't select/copy text. I test it with DejaVu, Constantia and Calibri. DejaVu is embeded as expected, Constantia and Calibri not. All fonts have unchecked font subsetting. |

Sorry, but that does not change in any way way the fact that this issue is a duplicate. There are already opened issues about what you mentions. Check for example 0005806 and 0009478. Cambria and Constantia falls in a specific case : they miss the 'post' table which is required to ensure compatibility with older postscript devices. That triggers us to use a technique which provided better compatibility with such device and also with older PDF rips. The double-byte encoding used by Indesign may trigger errors on such device. |
