Comments on: Should you outline your fonts before output? https://www.thegraphicmac.com/should-you-outline-your-fonts-before-output Apple, Adobe, Graphic Design, Resources Thu, 20 Jul 2017 13:26:04 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.8 By: James https://www.thegraphicmac.com/should-you-outline-your-fonts-before-output#comment-7686 Sun, 14 Feb 2016 16:24:29 +0000 https://www.thegraphicmac.com/?p=11784#comment-7686 Though I was happy to share this article from InDesign Secrets, I must admit that I haven’t outlined fonts for the purpose of sending for output since the late 90s. If you’re working with a printer with a modern workflow, there’s just no reason to send anything other than a PDF with the fonts embedded, or at the most a fully editable InDesign/Quark file collect.

But there are always exceptions, and this article is an excellent reference for accommodating those exceptions.

It can interfere with a number of processes at the production stage. Not to mention making those very last minute changes impossible.
