This is Adobe FAQ:

Q. Can I use Adobe fonts for commercial projects and client work?

A: Yes, Adobe's standard font licensing agreement (EULA)
<http://www.adobe.com/products/type/font-licensing/end-user-licensing-agreements.html>
allows
for both personal and commercial use, sales, and distribution of designs
and documents which are created using the font software. This may include
printed materials, logos, and rendered content like photographs, film,
video and bitmap graphics.

If distributed, the design should not contain the original font, but can be
converted to vector outlines, rasterized, or subsetted and embedded in an
electronic document like a PDF or eBook.

I guess we're in compliance or do we need additional legal advice?
