Yes, MS Word does this too. Fonts can contain four types of embedding license info: - No embedding - Print and preview embedding - Editable embedding - Installable embedding With no embedding, no fonts (or font subsets) are embedded. With P&P embedding, you can open and print documents, but not edit them (You can of course do a font substitution to be able to edit the documents.) Both editable and installable embedding work the same in Ms Word, but in theory it it legal to permanently install the fonts on other computers if installable embedding is allowed. All this is IIRC. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer
