Thank You for Your quick answer. Installing fonts on printers is not 
convenient way for us to solve this problem due to many clients and many

different printers they have to print to.
Is there any way You could help us correcting this problem directly in 
FOP libraries? Which classes/methods should be modified. If no, please 
tell us when we can expect the FOP release containing PS font embeding.

Jacek Wójcik.

Subject: Re: PS render, fonts, embedding


As described here [1] font embedding is not supported by the PostScript
renderer. The fonts to be used have to be installed on the printer you
are going to print on. Font embedding is also not yet implemented in the
latest code. And I've done no testing on encodings other than ISO Latin
1 for the PS renderer. You may also have to switch from TTF fonts to
Type 1 fonts. If installing the fonts on the printer doesn't help, you
will have to use a work-around. GhostScript may also help you to embed
the fonts after generating the PS file (do a PS-to-PS conversion).
