@Shree995, @AbhiG,

I have observed your comments and suggest you to please first try using latest Aspose.Slides for Java 18.8 on your end. If there is still an issue then please provide the source presentation (if any), source font used, generated presentation and Java/Operating system details on your end.

Hi [mudassir.fayyaz]
I have used latest library “aspose-slides-18.8-jdk16”. Font is embedded with .pptx file. I am able to see the font family in the font name tab (in list of font) but it’s not showing the effect of that font. I think it’s not installed in my system therefore it won’t be able to show the output Plz refer this image imag

I have a written a code in java to embed fonts with .pptx fil.
Here is mine step -->
1.First of all i get path of “ttf” file from my local directory.
Path path = Paths.get(dir+“customFont.ttf”);

2.Then i convert it into byteArray.
byte[] fileContent = Files.readAllBytes(path);

3.Then i load this byteArray object.
FontsLoader.loadExternalFont(fileContent);

  1. Finally i embed this byteArray object i.e. Fonts byteArray Data with new presentation.
    presentation = new Presentation();
    IFontsManager manager = presentation.getFontsManager();
    System.out.println(manager.getEmbeddedFonts().length+"\n");
    manager.addEmbeddedFont(fileContent, 1);
