How can I embed the fonts in a .prt files ?

How can I embed the fonts in a .prt files ?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.3.0

How can I embed the fonts in a .prt files ?
I made a wrapping feature onto a solid part with a text using a special true type font. When I send the part (.prt file ) to my supplier (who does not have the same font) he cannot see the text with the same font.
Is it possible to embed the fonts into the feature so that it does not change ?


Here are the errors that I faced
no error messages, different fonts on different machines with the same prt file.

Unless some new functionality has been added, this is not possible. Creo stores TTF in a directory and not in models.

If you are using the TTF to create solid geometry in a model, then you can try exporting it is a neutral file or STEP to supply to your vendor. If they need to work with the Creo file, then they would need to install the font in their Creo environment.

Just send the vendor the font file from the directory. Manual process but it will get the font to the vendor.
