In fact, this isn't an application issue and this is the forum where 
such things often get discussed.

There is absolutely no reason not to take any fonts that any Adobe 
product, for its own legacy reasons, saw fit to install in its own 
private little hidey-places instead of installing them for the entire 
system, and install them to where they are accessible by all products. 
After making sure that you have backup copies, the ones in the Adobe 
locations should be removed. You definitely don't want two "live" 
copies existing at the same time.

Initially it would be ok, but if you updated or replaced one, life 
would get confusing!

Note that different Adobe products use different locations for their 
fonts - they may be in the same folder tree as the application, in a 
local adobe shared location, or in one or more of the the system's 
common or shared file locations.
