CONS End user must be using a browser that supports plug-ins. If end users do not have the fonts that were used in the creation of the document, the operating system substitutes in a different font, causing the document and equations to display and print incorrectly. The Microsoft Word viewer plug-in does not support embedded font extraction. In this case, attempting to view the DOC file in the plug-in viewer will produce undesired results. Otherwise, if you know that your audience has all the appropriate fonts used in the creation of the DOC file, this is one option that works fairly well.
