"Ross Presser manages a small printing company's Windows network and develops humdrum in-house applications in several flavors of Visual Basic. During the few hours he is allowed to relax, he voraciously reads all kinds of text and kicks back to the music of Jimmy Buffett.

embedding fonts: "The Fonts tab in your Distiller Job Options setting is the place to control font embedding, as shown in Figure 4-15. The Embed All Fonts checkbox sets the default policy. Unchecking it means Embed No Fonts. The Never Embed and Always Embed font lists are used to override the default policy on a font-by-font basis. So, if Embed All Fonts is checked, all document fonts get embedded in the PDF except those listed under Never Embed. If Embed All Fonts is unchecked, only the document fonts listed under Always Embed get embedded in the PDF."
