Bug ID: 95062 Summary: Add more options to embed fonts in documents Product: LibreOffice Version: 5.0.0.5 release Hardware: Other OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: medium Component: ux-advise Assignee: libreoffice-b...@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: diaz.bast...@openmailbox.org CC: libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org Fedora 23 beta (64 bit) LibreOffice version 5.0.0.5 This proposal comes from the strange current functioning of implementation. Attached are two Writer files: In the first no fonts are embedded, (9.3 kB), in the second fonts are embedded (36.3 MB): Only 3 sentences are included with the Tinos regular fonts. (????) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5204736/Test%20embed%20font.zip Since version 4.1 you can embed fonts in the OpenDocument documents, thereby conserving design in systems without the fonts used. Apparently, the implementation is not quite finished and not allow settings to determine which fonts or font families to be included, to allow viewing or editing the document. Microsoft Office provides settings that helps reduce the size of the final documents, reducing the types of font included on the document. See: https://blogs.office.com/2015/07/06/document-font-embedding-demystified/ I suggest the following ( All include direct formatting and styles): -Only include fonts used in the document (default): This lets you share the document with security to keep the design for reading/viewing, keeping to a minimum the additional size added to the document,. Example: If the Tinos font italic version is used, not including the rest of the font family (Tinos regular, Tinos bold, etc). Impress use? -Include family fonts used in the document: Similar to the above, but also the families of fonts used are included. This also enables you to view the document correctly, edit it without problems using the same styles. -Exclude LibreOffice fonts: LibreOffice has a set of fonts that are distributed with the application. If a user has the security to share your document with LibreOffice user, enabling this option you can further reduce file size.
