Hello,

we are using a custom font for our documents. I know it's possible to embed fonts in document when saving.
Is there an option to enforce this setting with a policy?

I cannot find the right policy in the Office Policy templates.

We are using Office 2013 x86.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Based on my knowledge, the option is document-based, we can't control this on the Policy level.

If your request is to turn on this option for all new created documents. Since all new documents are based on the Normal.dotm template, a workaround is to create a new Normal.dotm template in which this option is checked:

Browse to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates, open Normal.dotm, tick the option and save it as Normal_1.dotm, save it in the same location.

Then rename the old Normal.dotm to Normal.old, rename Normal_1.dotm to Normal.dotm.

Open Word and create a new blank document, you will see this option is ticked.

To deploy this file for all users, we can write a startup script. The process is like: 1. Remove the old Normal.dotm, 2. Copy the new Normal.dotm template from a network shared location to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.

I hope the information is helpful to you.
