Abstract
A user of a host computer creates a document and embeds in the document a font file used to create the document. The user then transfers the document, along with the embedded font file, to a remote computer. The remote computer processes the document using the embedded font file. If the embedded font file contains a preview and print type of font, then the remote computer allows users to preview the document on a display screen and to print the document on a printer using the embedded font. However, the preview and print type of font does not allow the user to modify the document. If the embedded font file contains an editable type of font, then the remote computer allows the user to modify the document, save the modified document to an original file name, and print the modified document on the printer. However, the editable type of font does not allow the user to save the document under a file name different from the original file name.
