I believe most embedded fonts cannot be readily extracted for further use or distribution. "Installable" fonts can be extracted for other uses apart from the original dcument.

I agree, it's all very confusing.
I wonder if it would be possible to do that here. But I don't see how, I guess anyone could simply unzip the FCStd file and copy the font contained.
That makes sense.
I was thinking directory paths. If the font isn't found, offer up a file chooser for a local alternate.NormandC wrote: ↑Sun Jul 01, 2018 3:39 pmDo you mean to convert a ShapeString into a "dumb" set of curves, breaking the link to the font? Inkscape can do that. (On the other hand, this is already possible by using Draft Downgrade)wandererfan wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 1:46 pm Maybe a function to remap paths when fonts aren't found?
