I attempted installing a set I have and it still is substituting Adobe Sans MM when I open the file. As a multiple master font, it is very adaptable and will adjust it's boldness and width to meet the general parameters of the font it is substituting itself for.Īnyway, the bottom line is that the examples you are looking at are using a substitute font unless you have the same Postscript Type 1 versions of Gill Sans and Gill Sans Bold installed on your system. It is supplied with Adobe Acrobat as a resource for substituting. Adobe Sans MM is not a commercially available font. The Gill Sans and Gill Sans Bold fonts, on my system, show a substitute font being used named Adobe Sans Multiple Master. Unembedded fonts will be substituted based on details I don't fully understand. Embedding forces the font to remain unchanged.
Then it gets to Gill Sans and Gill Sans Bold and for whatever reason those fonts have not been embedded in the document while the rest have been.
It lists out about a dozen or so fonts, most of which are Bitstream/Corel fonts like Swiss and Staccato which aren't being used in the examples you're trying to match. I opened the PDF file in Acrobat and checked the document info for fonts.
