Replace existing font with embedded font

Post by Loki@99 »

Hi,

I'm trying to replace a system font with an embedded font in this file.
File_Embedded font issue.pdf
What I'm trying to do is to replace Arial in page 1 with FrutigerLTStd in page 2 but all methods I've tried didn't work.

1. I noticed that the embedded fonts aren't in Ribbon > Format font list

There is no such issue with FlexiPDF

2. I tried Copy and Apply Copied Style feature in Ribbon format

3. I tried Replace Fonts... feature. Embedded fonts aren't in Replace with... font list as well.

There is no issue with FlexiPDF

Maybe it's not yet supported in PDFXCE.

Thanks for investigating,

Hi, Loki@99

the devs have agreed to do this. It is not considered high priority and as such we do not promise a "quick solution", but it is officially "in the pipe" now.

Enjoy when done.
Best regards
