About embedding missing fonts

In PitStop Pro, you can embed missing fonts in a PDF document by retrieving them from your local system and/or by retrieving them from the Monotype Baseline™ platform.

Monotype Baseline platform

Monotype Baseline platform is a cloud service from Monotype that provides fonts directly to Enfocus PitStop Pro. It provides access to thousands of fonts in real-time (initially over 30,000 fonts).

For more information, see http://baseline.monotype.com.

What you can do

You can embed missing fonts with or without using the Monotype Baseline platform:

Using the Monotype Baseline platform, i.e. if you have set up the Monotype Baseline platform:
1. PitStop Pro first looks for the missing fonts on your local system.
2. If not found on your local system, then it looks in the Monotype Baseline platform.
3. PitStop Pro lets you preview the missing fonts and you can still decide, on a case-per-case basis, whether you want to buy them from Monotype or not. You can as well embed the system fonts only.
Without using the Monotype Baseline platform:
1. PitStop Pro only looks for the missing fonts on your local system.
2. If not found on your local system, PitStop Pro lets you preview the missing fonts. You can immediately embed them.

You can embed fonts manually or automatically:

Manually, by selecting the Fix Missing Fonts option from the PitStop Pro menu.
Automatically, as part of an Action List or Global Change or Preflight Profile.
Note: To get the possibility to download fonts from Monotype, you must have enabled the Automatically check Monotype Baseline™ for missing fonts checkbox in the PitStop Pro Preferences (Fonts category).
