Why do fonts need to be embedded or vectorized?

Embedding or vectorizing fonts in print files is important to ensure a consistent appearance of documents across different devices and systems. If fonts are not embedded or vectorized, they may be displayed or printed incorrectly and lose quality.

In general, fonts should not be smaller than 6pt to ensure optimal readability. Additionally, paid fonts must be vectorized to avoid legal issues related to licensing.

Embedding or vectorizing ensures consistent design across various systems, prevents loss of quality during printing through vectorization, guarantees the correct display of the chosen font, and increases the editability of print files.

If fonts are not embedded, a system font will automatically be used as a substitute. Please note that such a substitution cannot be grounds for complaints.

As part of our professional data check, we of course verify that everything is in order with the fonts.
