This is actually amazing. It is a simple, direct explaination of how to do it. My school demands me to use their font when making online presentations, and not following their indications can lead to some points being shaved off. So THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You just saved me plenty of points!
Applies to any version of PowerPoint that supports pptx so this applies back to 2003 (2000 is now retired by Microsoft). (you cannot do this to ppt files)
There is nothing as of yet because you can only embed them from the desktop app not Online as there is no object to control. However I did a video on converting files to PDF (th-cam.com/video/_Viq5t4nJZI/w-d-xo.html) and placing them in another library. I wonder if there is an option to embed the fonts in that. Not sure if that appeals to you.
Wait for Microsoft to provide this functionality in the online apps. Sadly that is not the case yet and this means we have flexibility with this by Power Platform, code, and make it work with cloud based services.
The only Office applications in which fonts can be embedded are Word and PowerPoint. However, if applicable , you can embed the Excel worksheet into a Word document where the required font is also embedded.
If you do not have the Office desktop applications you can download and install "LibreOffice" (www.libreoffice.org) which is free and allows embedding of fonts). LibreOffice can work with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access files quite extensively. The Office documents are zip files it requires code to not only embed fonts inside the file, but identify if the font is embeddable by checking the font license. Without using a desktop application you either have to embed them via your own code solution and write the license verification yourself, or you can do it manually by converting the docx to a zip file. I can give you the step-by-step on this but it is a massive and incredibly tedious task to do as you are required to write XML code to patch it all together.
It's tricky, but doable. DOCX is essentially a cab file. You'll need a connector that can read into the cab file, look inside the "word" folder there is a "fontTable.xml" file. This has a hierarchy where all the fonts are listed with properties such as its family, charset and panose.
Thank you so much I have watched so many videos that were NOT HELPFUL for my problem, but you fixed it for me!
Old and traditional style video teaching but then the video explained in a smart way, fast and effective. Thank you for sharing!

i don't have an options button.
So if we want to use custom fonts for MS online, we just type the font name assuming it's already installed on our PC?
What about powerpoint 2007 to PowerPoint online?

The enbed method isn´t working for online office nor android apps :(
Any suggestions?
Thank you! Is there any way to embed the fonts via the browser? or is it only available on the local files/application?

how can i get it to be usable in like discord or my browser?

how about in excel?

Impressive but can you tell how to do that without office 365 subscription
because mostly people without office 365 use office online

@@JohnDayQA thanks :D
I gotta download libre office on my kali linux
Works lovely with Linux Mint. I'm guesing you'll be fine with Kali, seeing as it is a little more hardcore. 😃
Thank you. May God bless you.
Thank you "ขอบคุณครับ"
Brilliant. Can you have an approval flow check that a document has its fonts embedded before it is published?
