I encountered a big problem when I contributed to an IEEE meeting today. When I checked the format of the specified paper submitted to the website (PDF test), I always indicated an error in the font embedding. At the beginning, I was puzzled. Arial and timesnewroman are commonly used computer font formats. Why can't they pass the check? After looking at the official FAQ, I finally found a solution.

The 'standard' setting file (suffixed. in joboptions, which can be opened by Adobe distiller), the common fonts Arial and timesnewroman are included in the list of "never embedded, in this way, common fonts cannot be embedded into the PDF file when the doc is converted to the PDF file. IEEE requires that all fonts of the PDF file must be embedded (or belong to the base 14 class ), therefore, it is impossible to pass the format review.

The solution is:

• 1. Generally, the IEEE conference/Journal submission website will provide a dedicated PDF configuration file suitable for the IEEE format requirements. Find the file according to the prompt and there will be ieee_0000_for_0000bat6/7/8. download the joboptions file and decompress it to the Adobe installation root directory "... program Files/Adobe/acrobat 8.0/acrobat/Settings;
• 2. Click Adobe PDF-'change conversion settings' in the word menu bar, select "ieee_0000_for_0000bat6/7/8. joboptions" from the 'conversion settings' drop-down menu, and click OK;
• 3. Now it can be converted (it seems that using the 'file'-'print'-'adobe PDF printer 'method to generate a PDF file cannot solve the problem, it is best to use the conversion method to generate): Click Adobe PDF in the word menu bar -- 'convert to Adobe PDF'

At this point, the font format problem of the PDF file is solved.

In addition, you can also use distiller to open the original 'standard' configuration file without downloading the configuration file, and delete all the Font types in the 'Never embedded' list in the 'font' option. However, this is not recommended.
