command). For anything that doesn’t have embedded fonts, you can try the following magical invocation (all on one line):
gs -dSAFER -dNOPLATFONTS -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dMaxSubsetPct=100 -dSubsetFonts=true -dEmbedAllFonts=true -sOutputFile=figures/Mprime-new.pdf -f figures/Mprime.pdf

This creates a file figures/Mprime-new.pdf
that is hopefully identical to the input file figures/Mprime.pdf
, except that the fonts are embedded. Run pdffonts
on it to check.
Once all your figures are in PDF format, remake the paper again. Hopefully, all your fonts are now embedded — check again with pdffonts
.
