Here are the font details:

I found some answers referring to the font embeddability but I tried another font with installable embeddability and I got the same problem

any idea how to embed the font with the pdf files?

Solution

  • I've installed the font on my local machine, which I use as my SSRS server, but I found out that the server is running on the admin user while the font was installed for a non-admin user
    problem is solved when I installed it for all windows users
