Embed only part of a font in your publication

When you embed only part of a font, a process known as subsetting, you create a smaller file to hand off to your commercial printing service than if you embed the entire font.

1. On the Tools menu, point to Commercial Printing Tools, and then click Fonts.
2. Select Embed TrueType fonts when saving publication.
3. Select Subset fonts when embedding.
4. Click OK.

Note  Do not subset fonts if you expect to edit the text in your publication. A subsetted font only contains the characters that are used in the publication. Other characters are unavailable, which limits your ability to make changes or additions to the text.
