Adobe Acrobat to add Fonts to a PDF
I have an Adobe Illustrator folder that contains the .ai file, PDF and other formats.
I need to upload a PDF book cover to a website to print copies of the book. But I get this error:
FONTS NOT EMBEDDED IN THE PDF: We require that all fonts be embedded. Please submit a new file with all fonts embedded. You may refer to the File Creation Guide for further instructions on creating a compliant PDF.
I have Adobe Actobat Pro on my machine, and presume I can add the 7 fonts contained in the Fonts folder to the PDF.
How do I do this?
Thanks

Adobe wants them in the Font folder. Install them there.

My error comes from a web service provider.
Farther down the link I posted for you is a section on Fonts for MAC
From that "To install your fonts using a font management utility (e.g., Extensis Suitcase, Font Reserve, FontAgent Pro or MasterJuggler), refer to that utility’s documentation for instructions on adding and activating the fonts."
Does that help you ?

I do not think it solve the problem at hand.
I need to open up the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro, add in the fonts, then save that PDF, I presume. The PDF is getting rejected by a web service. I am interested in seeing how the final version of the PDF looks, so, once those fonts are contained in the PDF, they still do not need to be on my Mac.

Btw, I just tested the Bowling Green approach on my Acrobat XI Pro on Windows and it appears to be the same as documented in their Mac doc. The quick summary is:

Yes, it seems that article steps me through adding in fonts to a PDF. So, I will take a look.
