However, there are two ways of embedding fonts in Photoshop: You can either position the font and keep the text layer or rasterize the text. When choosing the latter, you can no longer apply graphics effects to the the text or edit its characters. We generally recommend the first option.
When you export your document with the existing text layer, Photoshop will embed the fonts into the PDF document. If you choose to rasterize the text, the font will be fully converted to a pixel graphic and you will no longer be able to edit it as a text layer. When exporting your project to a PDF file, there is no embedded font in the document.
This becomes evident when zooming in on the PDF. You can see the rasterization jagged edges at the outlines of the font. How pronounced the jagged effect is depends on the size of the font and the resolution of the document. This effect is only visible when using a high zoom factor and very big point sizes in a document with dpi resolution.
Compared to InDesign or Illustrator, the export window of Photoshop only contains a limited set of setting options. Being a vector-based graphics program, Illustrator is better suited to export PDFs. Once you position text into your document, Illustrator will consider it as text layer and embed the type accordingly during the export. The saving process is identical to InDesign. Illustrator also allows you to convert text to outlines.
We only recommend this step if you are unable to embed the font type, e. The text frame is dissolved and the type is converted to outlines.
The process was successful if the blue text frame around the entire text has disappeared and each single letter is outlined instead. The text can no longer be edited now. The export window opens with the Advanced panel which is identical to its counterpart in InDesign. Here you can review whether the text is actually embedded in the PDF when exporting the document.
The other option is to adjust the settings yourself by going into the PDF settings. If all fonts used in your document are followed by Embedded Subset , then your PDF includes all fonts properly embedded and will upload without error. The way you embed fonts depends on the program you are using to create a PDF. Did you find it helpful?
