Created.

PDFs are (unless you choose options to make them "more smaller") supposed to be completely, totally, entirely self-sufficient. In other words, if the PDF file's code needs something, that "something" is supposed to be bundled in the PDF when it is created.

There are options to compress images, and not include fonts, but the default is supposed to be "everything including kitchen sink."

The recipient then gets the file and runs it through a Postscript interpreter that rastorizes the image defined by the PDF file's embedded program and either displays on screen or feeds to a printing device.

At least that's how I understand it.

Mike,

Would you say the problem is the receiving users workstation font file, or 
where the PDF is being created?
