It's always declared as the default font when we make a new document - the one that would be used if you just drew some text without changing the font - but there is no font file embedded. Helvetica, Courier and Times-Roman are always available on any Postscript printer or PDF reader, so they don't need embedding. There is nothing to get rid of, and no significant file size consumed by it.

I only use external (and free) fonts (eg. DejaVu) for my documents. These fonts are correctly embedded in the final document. But in the font list there is also a font type "Helvetica". I do not use such a font. Is this something internal? How to rid of this font? > > Regards Klaus > _______________________________________________ > reportlab-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/reportlab-users
