Hello,

i'm working on my first project with "publish online" and i need to know what's happening to the fonts
if i publish online because of the font license we have. Are the font provided on the adobe server
(as third party) and it will be hosted similar to a web server?

Or will the font embedded as in a PDF-File? In this case the font license is valid?

Thanks a lot in advance,

If the typeface is part of the 25,000 faces in fonts.adobe.com, then it automatically works. Some fonts have publishing restrictions built into them. Is that the case with yours? Did you test it yet? 

 

Publish Online is not a PDF; it is XHTML code, like an epub file. However, if you switch on "Allow Users to Download the Document as a PDF (Print), then it is also a Print PDF with embedded fonts. The former is only viewable, the latter is optionally a downloadable PDF with embedded fonts.

I haven't worked with it in ages but I thought everything was converted to SVG, or maybe I'm thinking of something else?

Yes, SVG+XML plus lots of XHTML code.
