Problem with embeding fonts

Hi!

I've been creating a couple of forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0, and then, with Acrobat, I enabled the usage rights.

It would be ok till then, but the trouble is, that even tho the "Embed fonts" option was on when I saved the dynamic pdf, after the usage rights enable, the fonts disappeared on all other computers.

I can't work it out, everything seems to be ok.

The fonts are Garamond (no trouble with that one), FairydustB and DeiGratia.

Any help would be really good.

LiveCycle Designer, Windows

Do you have an underlying document imported from Word or PDF that makes up part of your form? If so, you'll need to re-import this and make sure you correct all warnings (just keep this palette open) to correct font substitution issues. If you have an imported PDF make sure all fonts are embedded in that PDF prior to bringing it into LiveCycle.

No, I started using a blank sheet in LiveCycle, and only used 2-3 gif images, everything else is mere LC creation.

It could be that these fonts have a restriction that does not allow them to be embedded. Do you receive any warnings in the Warning palette? If you open the PDF in Acrobat Pro. and check the File --> Properties does it say that all the fonts are embedded under the Font tab?
