Thanks Leonard - I believe that gets to the heart of what we are asking. As we processing documents with IText and encounter fonts that are not installed on our customers machines is there a mechanism to flag or set the permission as non embeddable?

Some edits are performed using the Touch-up Text tool. For large documents we consistently see a "Replacing Font" message occur in Acro Pro when the user saves the doc. We have brought this to the attention of Adobe and treating this as a bug. What I have found is that some fonts embedded in our documentshave a "Can't embed font" permission and when one is available and selected in the TouchUp properties the save is instantaneous. Is there something we can do in IText to set this permission programmatically as we build/concat our docs? ============================================================================== This communication, including attachments, is confidential, may be subject to legal privileges, and is intended for the sole use of the addressee.
