Abstract: A computer implemented method includes receiving embedded font text defining characters associated with an original font family. The embedded font text is processed to generate original glyph metrics data, a combined original font glyph width based on the original glyph metrics data, and one or more candidate font families are identified. For each candidate font family a combined candidate font family glyph width is calculated and a candidate font family difference, the candidate font family difference being a measure of how the candidate font family's combined candidate font family glyph width compares to the combined original font glyph width. A particular candidate font family is selected as a replacement font family based on the candidate font family differences of the one or more candidate font families.

Abstract: Described herein is a computer implemented method for compressing a shape. The method includes: receiving input shape data defining first and second original shape commands and generating first and second compressed shape commands corresponding thereto. Generating the second compressed shape command includes generating a relative shape command that is a version of the second original shape command in which parameters are relatively defined; generating an absolute shape command that is a version of the second original shape command in which parameters are absolutely defined; and selecting a smaller or equal smallest of the relative shape command and the absolute shape command to be the second compressed shape command.
