Hello Mehdi! Thank you for responding. What I mean by embedding is that I would like to have the fonts embedded when we are going to email the PDF to our customers. We want to embed because we want the recipient of the email to have the actual intended font when they are viewing and printing the PDF.
But when we are printing the PDF here in the office, I would like the font to not be embedded in the PDF and have the PDF reader/printer look for the font during opening of the file. We want to not embed the font for this purpose so that it is a smaller file and can be copied faster to the print server.

In that, there's no way for the FO to tell FOP whether to embed the font or not. However, one way to do this (though I haven't tried) would be to use a non-standard font name to embed and a standard one to reference. You can see how to reference fonts from the URL (http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.0/fonts.html) but if you call the font you want to reference by a non-standard name i.e. "Lucida Console Embed" then that may do the trick. That would mean in each FO that you want the Lucida font embedded you'd use "Lucida Console Embed" and the standard name otherwise. I'm not sure if that would work, but its worth a go, I can't see why it wouldn't work. Mehdi On 15 December 2010 15:53, Roberto Cahanap <rcaha...@bioreference.com> wrote: > Hello!
