I am creating a fillable-form PDF on my PC (Windows XP) in Acrobat Professional 6.0 from an Illustrator file. My end user has Acrobat Reader 5.0. I want to use a particular font in the fillable fields; however, I have the postscript version installed on my PC while the end user has the Truetype version. Is there a way to assign his version of the font to the form fields in my PDF without having to install the TrueType version of the font on my PC (which means I will have to uninstall the Type 1 version)?
Thanks
Andrea
