Adobe Illustrator/Logo embedding in Illustrator

Question
Hi
I have Illustrator CS2 V12.0.0 and have created a logo. I need to save this logo in eps Illustrator 8 format but 2 of the fonts in the logo will not embed. I have selected the embed option but receive a warning that only fonts with appropriate permissions will be embedded. The fonts that do not embed are Alba Super and Palace Script MT

Answer
Hi Nathan,

I think your best option is to choose the fonts in question and Create Outlines from them. The person using version 8 won't be able to edit the text anymore - and neither will you - so save two versions.

To create outlines, select All, hit Shift+Ctrl+o (Type>Create Outlines).  Then save as you normally would.

Hope this helped,
Amy

Expertise

I can help troubleshoot your Illustrator 9 through CS3 (and most CS4) problems and suggest the best way to get the results you need. Although I can help with some installation issues, my forte is prepress and how to use the tools and functions in the application itself.

Experience

I've been a graphic artist for over 20 years. Oh my God, 20 years.
