Frequently asked questions
Can I see if fonts are embedded?
Yes. The tool shows which fonts are embedded and which are referenced.
Why does font embedding matter?
Non-embedded fonts may display incorrectly on devices that don't have the font installed. Embedding ensures consistent rendering everywhere.
Can I see which pages use which fonts?
Yes. The tool provides per-page font usage mapping so you can identify which fonts are used on each page.
How do I fix missing font issues?
If fonts are referenced but not embedded, re-export the document from the original application with font embedding enabled, or use our font subsetting tool.
