This is a kludge work around for converting text to outlines in pdfs 
when you don't have the fonts installed on your system.
You can accomplish this task in either Illustrator or Indesign.

Again the process is

1 place the pdf file in either program
2 set the transparency of the pdf to 99.9%
3 export to pdf using the afore mentioned transparency flattener settings

And again this is not really reccomeded to use as it changes the pdf. 
Editing of the text might be possible as long as you can copy specific 
characters, but it's a real pain to play with outlined text. Not to 
mention the possible legal aspects.
