Interesting coincidence.  I read in Publish! last night that Adobe is
dropping copy protection on their fonts (it was one of these "of course you
already know this, but..." comments stuck in the middle of an article).
Since this is the first I've heard of this, I'm wondering is Publish! is
dreaming, or whether Adobe really is dropping protection and I just haven't
heard.  Can anyone (especially from adobe?) confirm or deny this rumor?
