Macromedia Fontographer
As the creator of a
font program, "Tom 7" is allowed to set those bits however he
wants. Unfortunately, one of the leading
font creation programs, Macromedia Fontographer, does not have that capability. In fact, Fontographer creates _all_ TrueType
fonts with improper embedding information.

Different
Levels of Font Embedding
OpenType and TrueTypefonts include permissions defined by
the original publisher of the font to detail when and how a may be embedded in
a document. The OpenType and TrueType specifications define four primary levels
of font embedding:
· Print and preview fonts can be embedded in a document,
provided the user reading the document cannot edit the content of the document.
· Editable fonts can be embedded within content that can
be edited by the user.
· Installable fonts within a document may be permanently
installed by the user reading the document or a client application. In
practice, installable fonts are treated like editable fonts by most client
applications.
· No embedding permissions prevent fonts from being embedded in a document.are used by
a small proportion of available fonts.

You'll
find a free Microsoft utility that can change embedding levels, but only to
make it MORE restrictive.
