Well, since OS X doesn't use the OS/2 permissions data, it's probably irrelevant to worry about it on OS X. If the "embeddable" flag in the font info is there, try it and see what happens to documents in which you embed fonts. They should be embedded. Of course, I think it's sensible for you to teach those young whippersnappers how to use the Terminal for this kind of semi-pointless stuff. It doesn't take much in way of brains to use a command line like this, or use a HEX calculator to add offsets. It would do them good to understand there's more underneath the hood on their computers than their little minds currently can imagine. ;-) -- Godfrey "Hey you kids!
