Embed fonts using the Edit Document Text tool
Embedding fonts ensures that your PDF uses the same fonts as the original document, no matter where you open the
PDF or what fonts are installed on that system.
1 Choose Tools > Content > Edit Document Text.
2 Click the text containing the font embedding or subsetting to edit. A paragraph of text is enclosed in a bounding
box. You can select text within the paragraph by dragging.
3 Right-click the text, and choose Properties.
4 In the TouchUp Properties dialog box, click the Text tab to display the font name and font properties as well as
embedding and subset capabilities.
5 To see a list of all the fonts, scroll through the Font menu. Document fonts are listed first. Your system fonts are
listed below the document fonts.
6 Choose a font from the Font menu, check the permissions to determine which options are available for that font,
and then select an embedding option. The permissions determine which embedding options are available:
Can Embed Font You can select both the Embed and Subset options. To embed the entire font rather than a subset,
make sure that Subset is not selected.
Can Embed Font For Print And Preview Only You can only subset-embed the font. You can embed the font for print
and preview but not for editing.
Cannot Embed Font Both the Embed and Subset options are unavailable.
No System Font Available Both the Embed and Subset options are unavailable.

Working with objects
A selected object usually shows a bounding box. Selection handles appear when the pointer is over the object. When
the pointer is over a locked object, no selection handles appear. When you select multiple objects, the last object you
select becomes the anchor and appears red; the others appear blue. The anchor object remains stationary during
alignment operations.
To make another object in the selection the anchor object, Ctrl-click the new target object twice, once to remove the
object from the selection, and once to add it back to the selection. As the last object added to the selection, it becomes
the anchor object.
When objects of the same type are selected and the selection covers multiple pages, you can change the appearance of
the objects but not move them.
