The L, CB, and so on is the old convention. As part of the rename task, the
initial letters were dropped from the Univers library. If you buy them now,
you will, of course, get the latest version. At the moment, the one for sale
is Type 1. Keep your receipt because the library is being converted to
OpenType, and you may be eligible for discount later (I don't work for
Adobe, so I'm just guessing).

Note that even with the new names, you can still get name problems in some
families -- I don't know if Univers is one (I have Univers on PC but not
Mac, so I can't test it). Some applications let you map fonts as needed
(PageMaker and Windows FrameMaker, for instance) and some don't.
