-Support for custom fonts is highly output format dependent (see above table). This section shows how to add Type 1 and TrueType fonts to the PDF, PostScript and Java2D-based renderers. Other renderers (like AFP) support other font formats. Details in this case can be found on the page about [output formats](output.html). FOP does not support OpenType fonts yet, although that is in the roadmap for the next release. 
+Support for custom fonts is highly output format dependent (see above table). This section shows how to add Type 1 and TrueType fonts (TTF) to the PDF, PostScript and Java2D-based renderers. Other renderers (like AFP) support other font formats. Details in this case can be found on the page about [output formats](output.html). FOP does not support OpenType fonts (OTF) yet, although that is in the roadmap for the next release. 
 
 In earlier FOP versions, it was always necessary to create an XML font metrics file if you wanted to add a custom font. This unconvenient step has been removed and in addition to that, FOP supports auto-registration of fonts, i.e. FOP can find fonts installed in your operating system or can scan user-specified directories for fonts. Font registration via XML font metrics has been deprecated and is not recommended although it is still supported by the current code.

 - The "embed-url" attribute is used to specify the font file. Relative URLs are resolved relative to the font-base property (or base) if available. See [FOP: Configuration](configuration.html) for more information. 
 
-- The "embedding-mode" attribute is optional and can take two values: subset (the default) and full. If not specified the font is subset embedded unless is explicitly referenced (see below).
+- The "embedding-mode" attribute is optional and can take two values: subset (the default) and full. If not specified the font is subset embedded for TTF or full embedded for Type 1, unless it is explicitly referenced (see below). Subset embedding for Type 1 fonts is not supported.
 
 - The font "kerning" attribute is optional. Default is "true".
