You can embed or substitute fonts in acrobat or when you export an indesign document to pdf. if you want to add a font to adobe acrobat documents, go into the pdf settings and adjusting as follows (works for both windows and mac versions): click on the file menu, and choose print click adobe pdf. Pro tip: a font can only be embedded if it contains a setting by the font vendor that permits it to be embedded. write down the name of the font, using the exact spelling, capitalization, and hyphenation of the name as it appears in the font info dialog box. open the pdf in acrobat, and choose file > properties > fonts. Use any application to create a one page document with the font. Hi coleman,kindly follow the below instructions to embed any missing fonts in a pdf in acrobat pro dc: 1) go to tools > print production > preflight.2) go to pdf fix ups > embed missing fonts > select 'analyze and fix'.pfb screenshot for reference : hope this helps!thanks,tanvi.
you didn't indicate from what application you are creating the pdf file from (i.e., indesign, word, etc.), but the settings used in creating the pdf file determine whether the fonts get embedded or not. The correct place in your workflow to embed fonts is when you create the pdf file, not afterwards in acrobat.
