I've been advised by a person who formerly owned a sign print shop that we should save space on our internal network by not packaging fonts and links - that is not necessary to package and provide those files. I understand that if I'm submitting a PDF to print those components may not be necessary. However, it has been my experience if links are missing, images print pixelated/jaggy and of course if a font is missing, it is substituted. I know I can create outlines of the text to eliminate the font issues but I've also experienced problems with doing this because some of my design elements (e.g. bullets) disappear. I would really like to hear some other opinions on this issue because my opinion, and what I was taught in graphic design school, is that packaging fonts and links is necessary. Thanks for your consideration.
