Font embedded status is not returning correctly for Descendant fonts by AsposePDF.Net

Aspose.PDF Product Family
#1

One of the feature in our application is to check if the fonts in a PDF file are embedded or not. While you have the function to get embed status, in some cases aspose is reporting the status incorrectly.
Please see attached file (font-Embedded.jpg), the fonts marked in RED color using descendent font and in one case AsposePDF.Net is retuning the right value for embedded status while in other case it returning a incorrect embed status.
We like to know how we can get the font embedded status in this particular case. I am using Aspose.PDf v17.4.0

I am using below code to get font embedded status:
//////////// Code Start

string FontEmbedded = "No";
Document pdfdoc = new Document(sPDFFilePath);
Aspose.Pdf.Page page = pdfdoc.Pages[1];
FontCollection fontcoll = page.Resources.Fonts;
foreach (Font font in fontcoll)
{
if (font.IsEmbedded)
{
FontEmbedded = "Yes";
}
}

//////////// Code End

Thanks for sharing the sample document.

I have tested the scenario in our environment with latest version Aspose.Pdf for .NET 17.7, using following code snippet and I was unable to notice any issue. The API returned correct information regarding fonts as you can also check the attached screenshot of the result over our end.

//////////// Code Start
Document pdfdoc = new Document(dataDir + "sample-descendant-font.pdf");
Aspose.Pdf.Page page = pdfdoc.Pages[1];
FontCollection fontcoll = page.Resources.Fonts;
foreach (Aspose.Pdf.Text.Font font in fontcoll)
{
 Console.WriteLine("Font : " + font.FontName + ", IsEmbedded : " + (font.IsEmbedded == true ? "Yes" : "No"));
}
//////////// Code End

Hi Asad Ali,

Thank You for responding to this.

You are right AsposePDF.net is reporting correctly. The issue is with Adobe Acrobat, there is a mismatch of Font embedded status shown in “Adobe Preflight” versus “Adobe Document properties”. When I compare with “Adobe Preflight” there is mismatch against Aspose, I should compare against “Adobe Document Properties”.

For now this issue is resolved.

Thanks,
