Hello,

 

I am a subscriber of Creative Cloud (Plan Name: Creative Cloud All Apps 100GB). I create and save an Office Document with Adobe Fonts embedded and share that document with a person who does not have that font installed on their system

This is what they see.

 

This is what I see !

 

Can anyone guide me about what to do ? I need to allow my company managers to edit that document!

 

Thanks,

If they are opening a PPT file within PowerPoint and Adobe Fonts are used in the document they would need a Creative Cloud subscription in order for those fonts to work. That pretty much goes for any application where a document is being opened for further editing. The only way you can embed Adobe Fonts into a document for non-Adobe subscribers to view and print is by generating a PDF of the document. Depending on the application used to generate the PDF you might need to view it in Adobe Acrobat to make sure the fonts were embedded in the PDF.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
