To allow PowerPoint to save one or more of these fonts

1. Save your work and exit PowerPoint.
2. Open TTEMBED.INI in a text editor such as Notepad. TTEMBED.INI is located in your Windows directory.
3. Change the number next to each TrueType font you would like PowerPoint to save from a 0 to a 1.
4. Save TTEMBED.INI.

To prevent PowerPoint from saving one or more unlisted fonts

1. Open Control Panel and double-click Fonts.
2. Look on the list of installed fonts for the font or fonts you want to add to TTEMBED.INI. Write down the description exactly as it appears on the list. For example:

   TestFont Bold (TrueType)

3. Close Control Panel.
4. Open the TTEMBED.INI file in a text editor such as Notepad.
5. Add an entry to the end of the file similar to:

   TestFont Bold=0

   NOTE: Do not put the word (TrueType) after the font name. You will need to put a separate entry for each font weight (for example, TestFont Bold, TestFont Italic, and so forth).
6. Save the file.
