The Checkboxes are now converted to Pusbhuttons to make their use clearer. Scribus does embed or subset all Fonts which are listed in the 2 Lists on the right side. |
|

the issue has not been fixed yet. The font in the sample file is still subset (converted to outlines) although it isn't supposed to be converted. In particular: --stable 1.3.3.6: not fixed, both checkboxes unchecked, but Scribus does the converting job indepedently of what the user decides -- unstable 1.3.4cvs: not fixed, user should be able to disable embedding/converting fonts to outlines |

The Minion Rro Regular font is alway subsetted (converted to Outlines) because it's an OpenType font, which can't be embedded into a PDF. Only PDF-1.6+ can embed OpenType fonts. And for the 1.3.3.6cvs, what Fonts are embedded or subsetted is decided by the two lists on the right side, the Checkboxes are not relevant, they are in fact used as normal Buttons to transfer all Fonts listed on the right side. |

<quoting> The Minion Rro Regular font is alway subsetted (converted to Outlines) because it's an OpenType font, which can't be embedded into a PDF. Only PDF-1.6+ can embed OpenType fonts. </quoting> I know. But I neither want to embed, nor to subset Minion Pro, nor do I want do have outlines in the PDF. I don't want to have anything from Minion Pro in the final PDF: neither the font, nor the subset, nor the outlines. Why enforcing it? |

It's now possible to create PDF's with no Fonts embedded or subsetted at all. But its still strongly recommended to subset OpenType and large Unicode fonts. |

-- stable 1.3.3.6: tested, works fine -- unstable 1.3.4: detto :) From now on users will be able a to create a PDF file with Minion/Myriad Pro without embedding/subsetting/converting fonts to outlines and hand the PDF file over to the printer who uses Acroread 7. Acroread 7 will display the fonts using its own Myriad Pro/Minion Pro fonts. I've just tested it with Acroread 7 and it works exactly as expected. Thank you for your patience:) BTw: 0003701 (3 bottom notes from me and avox) describes a possible approach to embed OTF fonts subsets into PDF < 1.6 (decompressing and converting to Type1 while saving to PDF), but this is a different story:) |

fschmid: I'm sorry to bother you again, but it looks like somebody removed your changes in 1.3.3.6cvs -- the "not subsetting OTF" stuff doesn't work anymore, check boxes are back |
|
|
Hmm, just checked my local cvs and found out that its in sync with our developers cvs repository. Maybe there's a problem with the syncing of our developers cvs and the anonymus cvs. |
|
|
hmm, don't know much about it. I asked Peter on IRC yesterday to add some new tooltips about "subsetting OTF == converting to outlines" to the font tab. Today I'd checked out the 1.3.3.6 sources to see the new tooltips and your changes were gone. I will check it again in the evening and let you know. |

Maciej, We had issues syncing our private tree to anonymous cvs. Tooltips are not yet commited. |

checked out the source again -- everything is back in place (apart from Peter's tooltips), weird. Closing BTw: I've uploaded 2 screenshots of the _corrected_ font tabs (1.3.3.6 and 1.3.4), just in case, we should miss sth again:) |
