JoAnn,
How is one suppose to know if you can put it on more than one computer? If you have the font on your computer, apparently you've purchased it somewhere along the line. -- Don - Vancouver, USA "May your shadow be found in happy places." - Native North American "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ... The only problem with that is the possibility of violating the license for that font. People forget that darned near everything has a license or a copyright these days. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Don Schmidt" Don red_1987 wrote in message ... Glory, You could copy the font file needed, email as an attachment to the computer needing the font. Upon receiving the email with the attached font file, install it. -- Don - Publisher 2000® Vancouver, USA "Glory" wrote in message ... If I create a document at home using Publisher 2007 with a specific font style, and go to work and try to print it there when the Publisher 2007 installed at work does not have the same font I have at home, will it change my font style, and if so, can I save it as a pdf file and still be able to print it at work without having the font style changed at work. I prefer the font style I have at home, but I have to use the work printer which prints huge posters. Thank you for any help you can give me. Or, does anyone have any suggestions on how I can accomplish this? Glory |

ot: Hi Matt !
-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rob Giordano Microsoft MVP Expression "Matt Beals" wrote in message ... Right, not all fonts can be embedded. Many PDF creation tools do NOT embed the fonts in the PDF, but most DO. If a font is not embedded in a PDF then Adobe Acrobat will check to see if the font is loaded (available) on the workstation opening the PDF for viewing. If a font is NOT embedded in a PDF and is NOT available on the workstation then Adobe Acrobat uses its own multiple master fonts to (Adobe Sans Serif and Adobe Serif) to simulate as closely as possible the fonts that are not embedded in the document. Many times the printer driver allows for font substitutions (thank you Microsoft...) whether you allow it or not. And that's assuming that you know it is substituting fonts...

open the font file with something like The Font Thing and you can read the
licenses...I think maybe Publisher will tell you if it's embeddable as well...I think -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rob Giordano Microsoft MVP Expression "Don Schmidt" Don red_1987 wrote in message acquisition...

Exactly - *you* purchased the license to use it, not someone else.

I tend to be invisible. Maybe I need to use HTML posts. Bold and red.

Font licensing is a very tricky area. It is easily misunderstood and not
necessarily easily, or with difficulty, understood. Any PDF creation program, if I recall correctly, is required to honor the font embedding flag in TrueType fonts, any restrictions really. PostScript fonts do not have this special flag. I do not think that OpenType fonts have such a flag. But TrueType fonts definitely DO have this feature. Fonts like WP Iconics, Word Perfect fonts, generally have this restriction. There is no legal way to embed these restricted fonts in a PDF.
