When trying to save your PowerPoint presentations, especially when you have copied some charts or fonts from another file, you may receive one error message saying, "Some of your fonts cannot be saved with the presentation".


You may find yourself stuck on the semi-transparent screen, and the PowerPoint files cannot be opened again. Actually, that is because Microsoft PowerPoint does not support the fonts you inserted. But feel at ease; this post may save your life in such an emergency.


One of the leading reasons causes your fonts cannot be saved error is that your PowerPoint files are damaged, so you cannot make any changes to them. You can try to repair your corrupt PowerPoint files by fixing some fonts that cannot be saved, which is a problem with EaseUS Fixo Document Repair.


You can download this repair tool with the download button we gave you or other official ways. After the installation, you can double-click the Fixo icon to launch it. Click "File Repair" > "Add Files" to select and repair damaged Word, Excel, PDF, and other documents.


If you have disabled the options that allow the font embedding or you have checked the wrong options, you may also receive this "your fonts cannot be saved with the presentation" error. You just need to modify the settings like this:


In this post, we have looked at three effective fixes for the "some of your fonts cannot be saved with the presentation" error message. You can easily troubleshoot it by changing the bad slides and embedded font settings. If both ways fail, your PowerPoint files are highly likely corrupted; this is when EaseUS Fixo Document Repair shines.


Nothing's preventing you from saving the presentation as such; the message is telling you that because the presentation uses fonts that are not embeddable, you cannot save the presentation with the fonts embedded.


Or probably more practically, use the .Fonts.Replace to substitute a different font (one that IS embeddable). I expect you'd have to create your own replacement table for this; if the font's not present on your system, Windows will have substituted another font, but PPT won't tell you what font it is.


The weird thing is I can't find this font being used anywhere. Please help. I used a template from slidesmania.com and I'm creating this presentation with a team. One of my teammates might be using Ubuntu. I'm using Windows 10 Pro.


an unsupported type of font, such as Adobe PostScript Type 1 or Apple Advanced Typography,a supported type of font where permission to embed the font wasn't granted by the document creator.In this situation to remove embedded fonts:


Open the presentation file.Go to File menu, select Options and Save on the left side.Under Preserve fidelity when sharing this presentation, clear the Embed fonts in the file option:enter image description here


Some Office apps let you embed fonts in your documents. That way, if you share your document with someone else who doesn't have the same fonts installed that you do, the fonts, layout, and styling of the document won't change, and special characters won't turn into meaningless rectangles.


In recent years we've moved our Office fonts to the cloud, so they're available to all Office subscribers with Internet access and there's no need to embed them. Font embedding is still useful when using non-standard fonts, or if you expect the presentation to be edited or viewed offline by someone else.


When we embed such custom fonts into the document, the online conversion will use these fonts (if they comply with the following constraints: Some of your fonts can't be saved with the presentation) to avoid font substitution.


You will see two checkboxes - such as Embed only the characters used in the presentation, and Do not embed common system fonts.



Selecting Embed only the characters used in the presentation reduces the file size but limits editing of the file using the same font. This checkbox is common for both PowerPoint and Word.



In Word, selecting Do not embed common system fonts may increase the file size but is best for allowing others to edit the document and keep the same font.



In PowerPoint, the second checkbox is slightly different. You can select the Embed all characters (best for editing by other people) check box if other people may edit the document.


Is embedding your font still not working? Not all TrueType fonts can be embedded. Font creators can set different options for their fonts, including: Non-embeddable, Preview/Print, Editable, and Installable. To see what level of embedding your installed font is, go to Control Panel in Windows and click Fonts. Clicking on the font shows the Font embeddability setting.





Office cloud fonts won't appear in this list, but you rarely need to embed those anyhow since they'll automatically download if they're not already installed on the machine that opened the file.


Is your file size too large after embedding fonts? Certain fonts can be very large compared to others, so if file size is a concern, consider using alternative fonts. If you want to remove the embedding, you can turn off the Embed setting in the File > Options dialog box (described above) and save the file. Then, once you close and re-open the file, a different font is substituted for the font that had been embedded previously.


When embedding a font, avoid using Embed only the characters used in the presentation. It is better to embed all the characters in a font so that another user can successfully edit the file, if necessary.

To see what level of embedding your installed font is, go to the Font Book app and select the Information button at the top left. Clicking on the font shows the font information in the right-hand panel, and for many (but not all) fonts you'll be able to locate information on whether the font can be embedded.
