Embedding Fonts in PDFs using Acrobat Distiller

One of the benefits of the PDF format over others for sharing your documents with other people is that you can embed uncommon fonts into the document itself so that it does not matter whether the person viewing the document has the fonts that the document requires or not since the font that the document needs is contained within the document itself. In this tutorial that i wrote some time ago I look at Acrobat Distiller and the option within that program that allows you to define which font(s) are to be embedded. While there have been newer versions of Acrobat released since the article was written the option for embedding fonts should still be available.
