I know, Excel is not the best program to test font usage. In my search for a situation which the helpdesk would be able to reconstruct, I again encountered the same problem, this time in MS Excel (see attachment ‘Excel’ in next message). I had my doubts, since while testing, I encountered the same problem in Sibelius (see attachment ‘Sibelius’). Anyway, they assumed the problem was situated within Dorico. They couldn’t reconstruct the problem in Dorico, since they don’t have access to the program.

Open a pdf with non-embedded fonts in PDF Studio or Preview and then Print->Save as PDF creates one with fonts embedded.

You will need to print your PDF using an application that sends fonts information to the printer, such as Adobe Reader. Once installed, it will show up under your list of printers in the print dialog. Use the freeware CutePDF Writer which is a PDF printer driver. You can also use the following workarounds to embed other fonts with a PDF document: Standard fonts as well as system fonts will be embedded (as long as the fonts allow embedding).
