To demonstrate how to work with an XCI file, an XCI file
is used to embed a font into a PDF document that the Output service
generates. Embedding a font is relevant only for PDF output. For
PCL and PostScript output, the font is automatically embedded if
it is not resident on the printer. This setting reduces the PDF file
size by having the global embed setting off but providing a way
to embed particular fonts into a document.
To embed a font into the resultant document, perform the following
tasks:
Place the font into the windows\fonts folder that belongs
to the computer that LiveCycle is deployed on.
Copy the XCI file located in the folder that is specified
in this section, paste the XCI file in a new location, and rename
it custom.xci. For example, use the location C:\XCI\custom.xci.
Edit the custom.xci file by creating an XML element named fontInfo (place it
under the pdf element). Within the fontInfo element,
add the following XML data:
<alwaysEmbed>[name of the new font]</alwaysembed>
Modify the XCI URI option within Workbench or by using Output
Service API.
