I've been preparing a paper for publication in CVPR, and ran into some problems getting my pdf to pass the IEEE checks. Specifically, in PDF eXpress I got the following errors:
Document contains Link annotation(s) (98x on pages 1-8)
Font Helvetica is not embedded
The fixes on the IEEE website aren't very helpful if you are using pdflatex (they all reference editing the pdf in acrobat pro).
After some digging, I found that the first error was due to my use of the hyperref package. It makes the citations, references, and urls clickable in the pdf. Commenting it out solves the problem, but I had to add:
\usepackage{url}
to keep my url formatting.
The second error was a bit more difficult. After some crafty googling, I found a post by Daniel Lemire that presents some nice solutions. I went the ps2pdf route, using:
$ pdftops cvpr09_crowded.pdf
$ ps2pdf14 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress cvpr09_crowded.ps
You can check to see if the fonts are in there by checking the emb column of pdffonts:
