You have to find every instance of Font Dictionary in the PDF object "tree" that refers to Arial and convert that single Font Dictionary into a Font Dictionary + Font Descriptor + Embedded Font stream. In addition, you MAY need to recode the content streams themselves depending on whether you do a full embed (easier, but will make the PDF VERY large) or a subset embed (harder, but smaller).
If none of the above make sense to you - it's because you haven't read the PDF reference to understand the complexities of what you are asking for... I am done explaining this to you. Start reading and then ask some specific/pointed questions.

Thanks. And Rahul Khadikar, thanks a lot but this method is for creating a new PDF, not copying an existing, and that's what I should do.
