• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPS_DISPOSAL743 - 1 (&2) must contain embedded font types for the transfer to NARA ?

  The SAP error message RMPS_DISPOSAL743 indicates that there is an issue with the document or record being prepared for transfer to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Specifically, the error suggests that the document must contain embedded font types, which are necessary for proper rendering and preservation of the document when it is transferred.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises when the document being submitted does not have the required fonts embedded within it. This can happen if:
  
  The document was created using a software that does not embed fonts by default.
  The document was saved in a format that does not support embedded fonts.
  The document is using fonts that are not available or not licensed for embedding.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Document Properties: Open the document in the application used to create it (e.g., Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat) and check the properties to see if the fonts are embedded.
  
  
  Embed Fonts:
  
  In Microsoft Word: Go to File > Options > Save, and check the box for "Embed fonts in the file." Save the document again.
  In Adobe Acrobat: Use the "Preflight" tool to check for font embedding. You can also use the "Save As" function and select the option to embed fonts.
  
  
  
  Use Compatible Formats: Ensure that the document is saved in a format that supports font embedding, such as PDF. When saving as PDF, make sure to select the option to embed fonts.
  
  
  Check Font Licensing: Ensure that the fonts used in the document are licensed for embedding. Some fonts may have restrictions that prevent them from being embedded in documents.
  
  
  Recreate the Document: If the above steps do not work, consider recreating the document using standard fonts that are known to embed correctly.
  
  
  Test the Document: After making the necessary changes, test the document again to ensure that it meets the requirements for transfer to NARA.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  NARA Requirements: Familiarize yourself with the specific requirements set by NARA for document submissions, including formatting and font embedding guidelines.
