It does seem that way and that would appear to be confirmed by my later posting whereby adjusting the Acrobat 6 preferences prevented the production of CID fonts by restricting output to Acrobat 3 and not allowing distiller postscript to override those settings. That last setting seems back to front given that the default is to override the self same setting...

Again, the resolution it make sure you have the latest RIP - as that's the problem... The fact that the PDF has been produced with CID fonts isn't important... Now why do you get those fonts as CID - because Distiller wanted to. Bascially, something about the font in question, the set of characters from that font that you used, etc. made Distiller choose to create a CID font from your TTF font... Distiller does lots of font "conversions" behind your back - for example, did you know that every Type 1 font that goes into Distiller comes out as a Type1C font in the PDF?? > whilst we have PitStop there seems to be > no way that that can change a TTF (CID) font to a humble TTF. Nope, there isn't.
