Embedding fonts in a PDF document
by Mostafa on Oct.03, 2008, under How To ..., LaTeX, Linux, Software
It is often a good idea (or a requirement) to embed the used font faces in a PDF document. This is easily accomplished using ps2pdf during the final stage of conversion of a document from PS to PDF:
$ ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 \ -dMaxSubsetPct=100 -dSubsetFonts=true -dEmbedAllFonts=true \ 'input_file.ps' 'output_file.pdf'
An explanation of the command options can be found in the Ps2pdf.htm file in the Ghostscript documentations (or here).
