Background: I'm writing my thesis and per the department guidelines, I have to use TrueType fonts and they need to be embedded in the PDF.
Now, I have managed to change everything into Computer Modern Unicode (CMU) or Latin Modern for monospace font, but the output file says there are other font types (Type 1) embedded in the PDF (and there are so many duplicates for some reason):
My question is, how can I make sure only TrueType fonts are being used? I searched for these fonts in the preamble:

but I don't see anything.
I am using XeLaTeX and have the following codes in preamble:
\usepackage{fontspec} % to import fonts via XeTeX
\setmainfont{CMU Serif} % TrueType font of Computer Modern
\setromanfont{CMU Serif} % Roman TrueType
\setsansfont{CMU Serif} % Sans TrueType
\setmonofont{Latin Modern Mono Prop} % Mono TrueType font
Other notes: I am using EPS files (edited in Illustrator) to embed my graphs, but I've made sure the fonts used there are TrueType as well:
UPDATE: Just wanted to update this post in case somebody else has the same problem. I followed @cfr suggestion and got rid of the CMR
, Nimbus
, rtxmi
, txmia
and txsy
. Also, as @Sverre mentioned in the comments below, one of the culprits was the images I was using in my document. They were EPS files and Illustrator was embedding the font within them. So to get around that, I followed this guide and converted my images into outlines.
And now I only have these TT fonts embedded:
Best Answer
Here's a cut-down version of your preamble with some comments and a minimal set up for Latin Modern with Latin Modern Math:
Note that
textcomp
is not required for things like\textcopyright
with this configuration.For Asana, add
which will use the
.ttc
.You need to be very careful about the symbols and scripts you use in order to ensure that no type1 fonts creep in.
I would seriously ask them to clarify this requirement. If their point is that they want to insist on scalable fonts, that is entirely reasonable and an awful lot easier to implement.
And if they really don't want scalable, as they claim, then presumably they do not permit submissions prepared with word processors at all. They also can't possibly want True Type in that case. In that case, you would need to force TeX to use only MetaFont source fonts. These scale horribly in well-know PDF viewing software.
