You may already have a Properties option there. Note: Navigate to your Fonts folder and right-click a font before downloading the properties extension. Doing so allows you to right-click a font from the Fonts folder and choose Properties to see the Embedding license (among many other properties).

So, how do you know which type of license your font has? The easiest way is to download and install Microsoft's TrueType Font Properties Extension.

Unless you just want your presentation to be viewed, and not modified or edited in any way, I would steer clear of Print & Preview fonts.

There are three different types of embedding licenses. ttf (whether TrueType or OpenType) contain TrueType font data and can be embedded.īut wait, there's more! All embedding licenses are not created equal. Right-click within an empty space within the folder and choose View > Details. If you'd like to know if your OpenType font contains TrueType font, view your computer's Fonts folder ( Start > Control Panel > Fonts).

In PowerPoint, you'll notice all fonts have either a TT (TrueType) or an O (OpenType) next to them in the font list. If you're using a PC, the fonts need to be TrueType for them to embed. the Mac versions of PowerPoint can't embed fonts, nor can they use fonts embedded in a PC-born presentation. If you're using a Mac, I've got bad news.
