Embedded Fonts

By default all embedded fonts are optimized. Characters which are not used in a report are excluded. It allows decreasing the size of a file. But, for correct work of the editable field, the font should be complete. Therefore, for fonts, which are used in editable fields, optimization is not done. This increases the output file size. If Asian languages are used, the file size can be 15-20mb.

Font Styles

There is one peculiarity of the export: all fonts for embedding to PDF files should be installed in the system. And for each font style a single font file should be installed.

For example, for the Arial font 4 files should be installed:

  • “arial.ttf” - the style regular,

  • “ariali.ttf” - the style italic,

  • “arialb.ttf” - the style bold,

  • “arialbi.ttf” - the style bold-italic;

The Lucida Console font is usually represented with one file that contains the regular style (other styles are generated by the system). Therefore, when embedding such a font to the PDF file, only regular style will be output, instead of all styles of this font.
