If "A Bite" is listed and that font is installed on the computer which is viewing the PDF you are all good. If "A Bite" is not available on the computer which is viewing the PDF you will get a font-substitution which is not what you want. I'm not sure what you can do if "A Bite" is not listed in the list of fonts except ask in the CS4 forums.

Maybe someone can help me (or maybe this is the wrong forum). I am trying to export from InDesign CS4 a font titled "A bite." When I attempt to export to PDF, I receive the following message and the font--a bite--is replaced. "A bite: This font could not be embedded due to licensing restrictions in the font. A substitute font will be used if it supports the glyphs used in the restricted font. The PDF will not be created if the glyphs cannot be represented." Help?

In order to use any microsoft or other fonts that are not open source (under the GPL license) you must obtain licensing from Monotype Imaging. I work with developers everyday that solve all the posted questions described here. Remember, using font data outside of your personal workstation without addtional licenseing is IP piracy.

I use the edit object tool, hiselect a whole page or just the parts I want to edit, right click>edit object (I've already set up Illustrator in the preferences)and Illustrator opens automatically with my selected stuff>edit it in Illustrator, save and it is automatically saved into the pdf, close Illustrator and the changes have been saved in the pdf. If you edit the whole page, you can do a save as an Illustrator file. Do a Find Font and replace the missing fonts with fonts on your system. Love it! Definitely coming back to read more.

However, I have never come across this before - a PDF is a PDF (although I am aware Macs & PCs will display & print them differently at times, apparently). Has anyone else encountered this ability?
