I created a simple doc with a fictitious font 'supercalifrag' and then exported as a PDF/1 and the default (on my system) ends up as DejaVuSans (Embedded Subset). That seems to be the hardwired font included in LO 3.x. But I don't know how to test with others (Asian etc). But the question still remains as to how to determine what the substitute font is/will be. And without the VLC.xcu file I've no idea where to look next. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
