It springs to mind that perhaps a PDF file, or the originating Postscript file used to make a PDF file, can embed certain *types* of fonts as fonts (e.g. Postscript fonts), but text using other types might have to be incorporated as pre-rendered graphics. Rather than it being certain fonts, in themselves. I looked into making PDF files a while ago, but only touched on it. My problem was less to do with copy and paste on the final file, but more to do with some PDF files being huge because of the embedding. Over time, I've come to feel that PDF files are a curse. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
