The fonts should be embedded in the PDF files, but it's a well-known problem
that Adobe Illustrator fails to handle many aspects of PDF and PS files,
even
though both PS and PDF have been defined by Adobe themselves.
One possibility might be to use ps2ps, included in the Ghostscript
distribution
to convert the file to a "simpler" Postscript. In spite of the name of
the program,
you can use both PDF and PS files as the input, but at least if you
have a recent
version of Ghostscript, it's probably better to start from the .ps file
from LilyPond.

Hi Again,
I'm still working on my CD jewel case insert.
I can now make a PDF in Lilypond that is the right size. But I tried
to import it into Adobe Illustrator 10 for the Mac to position it on
the printed page - otherwise it gets printed in the middle, rather
than along the edge of the sheet, where I need it to match the outside
of the case insert that I previously designed in Illustrator.
When I place the PDF in my Illustrator window, I get this message:
Missing Type 1 fonts have been substituted with the default font.
And the staves are thick, solid black lines. Also where the noteheads
appear outside the staves they are thickened. The overall effect is
as if someone tried to draw the score with a thick felt marker.
Is the some option that will fix this? It seems to me that the score
wouldn't render in other programs if the font wasn't included in the
PDF. Alternatively, could I install the Lilypond fonts in Mac OS X to
fix it?
Thanks for your help,
Michael David Crawford
