Embed a font or a subset of a font in your application
Typically, users will already have most of the fonts that you can select in Blend for Visual Studio 2012 installed on their computers, and therefore you do not have to embed them. However, if you have added a custom font to your application, you must embed the whole font or a subset of the font. Otherwise, users who do not have that custom font installed on their computers will not be able to view the custom font in your application. Instead, a default system font will be used to display the text.
For information about adding fonts, see Add a custom font to your application.
