so I am trying to print a string with html formatting. Part of the formatting includes font face. I have found that my print job will not print ANY string that includes a font face declaration. I’m guessing because the font isn’t embedded, but I’m not positive.

this works:  
string = “\<b\>bold\</b\> not bold”;

doesn’t work:  
string = “\<TEXTFORMAT LEADING=“2”\>\<P ALIGN=“LEFT”\>\<FONT FACE=“Arial” SIZE=“12” COLOR=”#000000" LETTERSPACING=“0” KERNING=“0”\>this is my string\</font\>\</p\>\</textformat\>";

How can I get around this. I need the ability to print any font on a users computer.
