   PDF allows font glyphs to be embedded, but Photoshop always rasterizes type so it doesn’t matter. You really shouldn’t use Photoshop for type other than large display type anyhow; raster images are a poor medium for typography.

   once you save the file as a fully rasterized image, those fonts become images anyways so you’ll be fine.
   im not sure you will want to do that though, InDesign and illustrator are more suitable for the printing press

   make sure your image or design is already flatten…or save it as jpg..bitmap. or anything… because it will be automatically flatten….but before you flatten your design make sure that ur already decided that ur through with it ok…

   Yes, there should be no font problem at all if you send it as a raster image. Usually, image for printing press is eps or tiff.
   I also agree to do the fonts work in Illustrator or InDesign, and leave Photoshop for bitmap images only.

   PLEASE don’t use photoshop to do layout designs. Stick with indesign & then supply your printer with a PDF, with fonts embedded or converted to curves

   Export it as a PDF or a JPEG the reason some letters go missing is because they are not fonts the printer uses. If you save it as a jpeg it will be basically a picture of what you created and will look the same.
