<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Paulo,<br><br></div>pdffonts says in our case emb=no which means that the font is not present in the PDF. The rendering engines is then (almost) free to do whatever it wants. Usually the engines have their built-in fonts. If a font with the same name is found, it is usually used but it need not be the intended font. If it is not found, the rendering engine often has replacement rules and selects a font. If there is no matching replacement rule, either a default font is used or nothing is displayed at all. Thius is why documents without embedded fonts look differently in different viewers. Usually ghostscript has reasonalbe replacements so you can often fix the problem by post-processing the PDF file by ps2pdf (yes, it is able to build another PDF from a PDF).<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature">Zdeněk Wagner<br><a href="http://ttsm.icpf.cas.cz/team/wagner.shtml" target="_blank">http://ttsm.icpf.cas.cz/team/wagner.shtml</a><br><a href="http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz" target="_blank">http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz</a></div></div>

</span>I know that this is in the manual, but I *STRONGLY* advice against it.<br>
There are some broken fonts, some that mess up fontconfig due to naming<br>
issues, all kind of bad things can happen. In Debian I have been pushed<br>
to do this for long time, but always rejected and recommend people<br>
adding only those fonts one by one that they are actually use.<br>
