May 21, 2016  Adobe Sans MM and Adobe Serif MM are fallback fonts that Acrobat uses whenever a font is not embedded in a pdf. These fonts are Multiple Master fonts that only exist within Acrobat and are not available at the system level. According to Dov Isaacs at Adobe, you must have a font actually installed in your system to be able to use it to edit a PDF. Adobe Sans MM and Adobe Serif MM are fallback fonts.

The Adobe Originals program started in 1989 as an in-house type foundry at Adobe, brought together to create original typefaces of exemplary design quality, technical fidelity, and aesthetic longevity. Adobe Serif MM字体是非常全面的英文衬线字体，相对于其他字体格式来说，这种字体就非常适合阅读，也非常适合办公等比较重要的文件中，给用户更加专业的感觉。.

A font can be embedded only if it containsa setting by the font vendor that permits it to be embedded. Embeddingprevents font substitution when readers view or print the file,and ensures that readers see the text in its original font. Embeddingincreases file size only slightly, unless the document uses CIDfonts. a font format commonly used for Asian languages. You canembed or substitute fonts in Acrobat or when you export an InDesigndocument to PDF.

The majority of Adobe's fonts are now available on fonts.adobe.com as part of the Adobe Fonts subscription library or the Adobe Fonts Marketplace. Perpetual desktop licenses for any Adobe typeface are available from Fontspring. For font purchasing with other currencies and languages, you can visit Fonts.com. The best website for free high-quality Adobe Sans Mm fonts, with 30 free Adobe Sans Mm fonts for immediate download, and 57 professional Adobe Sans Mm fonts for the best price on the Web.

You can embed the entire font, or just a subset of the charactersused in the file. Subsetting ensures that your fonts and font metricsare used at print time by creating a custom font name. That way,for example, your version of Adobe Garamond®,not your service provider’s version, can always be used by the serviceprovider for viewing and printing. Type 1 and TrueType fonts canbe embedded if they are included in the PostScript file, or areavailable in one of the font locations that Distiller monitors andare not restricted from embedding.

When a font cannot be embedded because of the font vendor’s settings,and someone who opens or prints a PDF does not have access to theoriginal font, a Multiple Master typefaceis temporarily substituted: AdobeSerifMM for a missing serif font,and AdobeSansMM for a missing sans serif font.

The Multiple Master typeface can stretchor condense to fit, to ensure that line and page breaks in the originaldocument are maintained. The substitution cannot always match theshape of the original characters, however, especially if the charactersare unconventional ones, such as script typefaces.

Note:

For Asian text, Acrobat uses fonts from the installed Asian language kit or from similar fonts on the user’s system. Fonts from some languages or with unknown encodings cannot be substituted; in these cases, the text appears as bullets in the file.

Note:

If you have difficulty copying and pasting textfrom a PDF, first check if the problem font is embedded (File >Properties > Font tab). For an embedded font, try changing thepoint where the font is embedded, rather than sending it insidethe PostScript file. Distill the PDF without embedding that font.Then open the PDF in Acrobat and embed the font using the Preflightfixup.

When converting a PostScript file toPDF, Distiller needs access to the file’s fonts to insert the appropriateinformation in the PDF. Distiller first searches the PostScriptfile for Type 1, TrueType, and OpenType fonts. If the font isn’t embeddedin the PostScript file, Distiller searches additional font folders.Distiller searches the following font folders in Windows:

• /Resource/Font in the Acrobat folder

• /Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Fonts

  Distiller searches the following font folders in Mac OS:

• /Resource/Font in the Acrobat folder

• /Users/[user name]/Library/Fonts

• /Library/Fonts

• /System/Library/Fonts

  The Acrobat installation includes width-only versions of many common Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts, therefore Distiller can then access these fonts in Acrobat. Make sure that the fonts are available on your computer. (In Windows, choose Complete when you install Acrobat, or choose Custom and select the Asian Language Support option under the View Adobe PDF category. In Mac OS, these fonts are installed automatically.)

  For information on including fonts in a PostScript file, see the documentation that came with the application and printer driver you use to create PostScript files.

To specify other font folders for Distiller to search, in Acrobat Distiller, choose Settings > Font Locations. Then in the dialog box, click Add to add a font folder. Select Ignore TrueType Versions Of Standard PostScript Fonts to exclude TrueType fonts that have the same name as a font in the PostScript 3 font collection.

Note:

To provide Distiller with access to a font folder that has been moved, use this dialog box to remove the folder listed in its old location and add it in its new location.

You can create a printable previewof your document that substitutes default fonts for any text formattedin fonts that are available on your local computer but are not embeddedin the PDF. This preview can help you decide whether to embed thoselocal fonts in the PDF, to achieve the look you want for your document.

In the Preferences dialog box under Categories,select Page Display, and then deselect UseLocal Fonts.

Note:

If a font cannot be substituted, the text appears asbullets, and Acrobat displays an error message.

Ifyou need to enter a font name manually on the Fonts panel of the AdobePDF Settings dialog box, you can use a PDF to find theexact spelling of the name.

Use any application to create a one-page documentwith the font.
Open the PDF in Acrobat, and choose File > Properties > Fonts.
Write down the name of the font, using the exact spelling,capitalization, and hyphenation of the name as it appears in theFont Info dialog box.

Multiple master fonts (or MM fonts) are an extension to Adobe Systems' Type 1PostScriptfonts, now superseded by the advent of OpenType and, in particular, the introduction of OpenType Font Variations in OpenType 1.8, also called variable fonts.^[1][2]

Multiple master fonts contain two or more 'masters' — that is, original font styles — and enable a user to interpolate between these masters along a continuous range of 'axes.' With proper application support, these axes could be adjusted on demand.

The intention was that using multiple master fonts, a designer can generate a style of the exact width, thickness and optical size wanted, without losing the integrity or readability of the character glyphs. The effect is similar to morphing, as a designer can choose an intermediate between two styles, for example generating a semibold font by compromising between a bold and regular style, or perhaps extend a trend to create an ultra-light or ultra-bold. This idea was not new, having been used by companies such as URW++, but Adobe hoped to develop the technology to a greater extent.

Adobe's goal in multiple master font technology was to allow end-users of fonts to create the exact font they needed for a situation, by adjusting parameters such as boldness or width.^[3][4][5] However, multiple master fonts proved unpopular in consumer-facing use due to the difficulty of writing (or rewriting) consumer desktop publishing applications to support them, and because font designers have generally preferred to release fonts in specific weights and styles, as font files that have been individually fine-tuned. However, the multiple master concept remains heavily used at font design studios, allowing designers to generate a range of weights and styles quickly and then optimise them individually.^[6][7] 'Multiple master' may therefore often be seen as a generic term describing interpolated font design generally, not necessarily using Adobe technology.^[8][9]

In 2016, Adobe, Google, Apple and Microsoft announced a new update to the OpenType specification, allowing variable fonts. Similar to the multiple master concept, this will allow custom styles to be generated from a single font file programatically.^[10][2]

Aspects of multiple master fonts[edit]

Where available, most MM fonts support one or two (and occasionally three) of the following variables:

• Weight allows the character weight to be modified, typically from light, through regular, to extra bold.
• Width allows the character width to be extended or compressed. Although any font can be compressed or expanded by software, the results from a multiple master font are superior. When a font is artificially expanded, all the features are expanded, including the line weight. This means that vertical strokes will be proportionally thicker than the horizontal strokes, giving an uneven appearance. Multiple master fonts with a width axis are designed to scale appropriately.
• Optical size allows the character shape to be modified based on how large it will appear to the reader. At small sizes, small details such as serifs and thin lines such as stems are typically bolder. The 'x-height' (the height of a lower case 'x') is also a larger proportion of the total font height, and the characters may be extended slightly. These changes are designed to make small type easier to read. At larger sizes, these details can be finer and the lines more delicate. Note that the optical size is independent from the actual size of the type. It is up to the user to pick the appropriate optical size for the application and viewing environment (for example, a billboard would want to use small optical size even for extremely large text).
• Style, the least used of the multiple master axes, allows any other font property to be continuously modified. One such example is changing the serif style from wedge (triangular) to slab (rectangular).

For example, the Myriad multiple master font had two axes: 'weight' and 'width.' This font therefore included four separate 'master designs' of each character: light compressed, light extended, bold compressed, and bold extended. Any weight or width font in between these endpoints could be produced by interpolating between the character outlines of these master designs.^[11][12] The addition of italics requires another four master designs.

Another example is Adobe Jenson, which supports 'weight' and 'optical size' axes. This font uses three masters to represent the optical-size axis, designed for 6, 12, and 72 point type, respectively. This allows the common size of 12 points to be optimized, but requires 6 master designs for roman, and another 6 for italic.

Application support[edit]

Current application support for these fonts is sparse, if not entirely absent. However, font design tools such as FontLab and FontForge can edit MM fonts, and can export into other font formats as needed. Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is required for MM support on Windows and the 'Classic' Mac OS (9 and below).

Describing why the technology failed, a retrospective by Tamye Riggs, written for Adobe, noted: 'Users were forced to generate instances for each variation of a font they wanted to try, resulting in a hard drive littered with font files bearing such arcane names as MinioMM_578 BD 465 CN 11 OP.' Prominent Adobe font designer Carol Twombly cited the frustrations of the failed project as one of several reasons behind her decision to leave font design around 1999, and Adobe's Christopher Slye would later relate that he had been concerned that Adobe's principal type designer Robert Slimbach had damaged his health struggling to apply multiple master technology to Adobe Jenson in the late 1990s.^[4][13]

Free software[edit]

Free-software support for multiple master fonts is offered by the program mminstance, which generates standard PostScript fonts from multiple master fonts. These can then be used in any application that is compatible with standard PostScript type 1 fonts.

The FreeType font rendering engine also provides rendering support for multiple master (and GX) fonts.

Legacy of multiple master fonts[edit]

The multiple master font format has mostly been superseded by OpenType, which provides more support for different languages and glyphs, but does not offer the unique continuous controls for character shape. Typically the OpenType versions of old multiple master fonts include a selection of the most commonly used combinations of axis positions.

Multiple master fonts still serve two purposes:

1. As the fallback font format of Adobe Acrobat, multiple master fonts are used as a substitute in place of original fonts in the case of missing fonts. Two such substitution fonts are buried amongst the data resources for Acrobat: Adobe Serif MM and Adobe Sans MM. CourierStd is another fallback font family in Acrobat.
2. As a design tool for creating families of fonts; a font designer can create a multiple master font from a base font design and then offer customers a wide number of font variations by building them from the multiple axes of an MM font. E.g. by creating a light version and a heavy version of their font design someone could create a multiple master font with a weight axis and then offer clients any custom weight they wanted. Adobe and others continue to use multiple master technology in font design.

Since in modern multiple master design the norm is to release to the user a curated collection of weights, a key question is which sizes to interpolate to. In the Thesis typeface, developed by Lucas de Groot, de Groot's choice of weights to release was developed using an 'interpolation theory'. The optical interpolation b, in the three stems a (thinnest), b (interpolation) and c (thickest), is set to the geometric mean of a and c, i.e. b² = ac (as opposed to the linear arithmetic mean).^[14][15]
