Why are there free fonts included with Adobe Reader?

I noticed that there is a folder with free Adobe fonts included with Adobe Reader. The fonts are Courier Std, Minion Pro and Myriad Pro.
Why are these fonts included? Will these fonts be included with future versions of Adobe Reader?

The fonts are only for use with Adobe Reader. You should not attempt to use them for any other purpose. They are included with software that is free of charge, but still subject to license and may not be copied to other systems...
All versions of Adobe Reader have included some fonts, but they change.
They are mainly there to help Adobe Reader show PDF files that do not embed fonts, to generate substitutions in a wide range of sizes and shapes.

  • Are there any known issues with Adobe Edge Animate and Yosemite? Experiencing performance issues since upgrading OS

    Are there any known issues with Adobe Edge Animate and Yosemite? Experiencing performance issues since upgrading OS. Animation I was working on that had been performing in browser fine suddenly stopped working, and was not related to any action I had done at that point. Also was working in it today and program stopped responding to key board short cut commands.

    I am having a whole slew of odd interface problems with a fresh 2014.1.1 on a fresh macbook pro with latest Yosemite. Program locks up, cursor selections don't show, things disappear. I have a mac mini also and the program runs fine on it. Is there possibly something related to the solid state hard drive in new macs?

  • Are there any costs for an adobe reader software distribution license ?

    Are there any costs for an adobe reader software distribution license ?

    No (except for the costs of having your legal team check the license). You do need to read the license carefully, you are making specific commitments and there are specific restrictions.

  • Hello! Why are there staircase-shaped artefacts with jpegs in Lightroom (invisible in other programmes)?

    Hello! Why are there ugly staircase-shaped artefacts with jpegs in Lightroom? They're mostly on edges of red subjects and I can't find them in other programmes or software...

    If you have the photos on your camera cards, then obviously you can simply copy them to the appropriate locations.
    There are Lightroom plug-ins that can retrieve the preview that Lightroom uses, but these will be smaller and lower in quality than the original. Maybe one of our plug-in experts can suggest the proper plug-in.
    If the hard disk is really going bad, as I speculated, you would definitely want to get it replaced. If that is the case, you don't want to keep using it. You might want to run some disk diagnostics on it.

  • Why was there no plugin included with the latest update of Flashplayer??

    Why on earth would a company like Adobe put forth an update to Flashplayer and not include a plugin with it???
    It seems that Adobe is screwing up with the other big guy's as well ie, Java.
    So, what else is new. More and more companies are hiring more and more help who are incompetent. It is starting to run rampant.
    Who knew? When things went at a slower pace they were done right. Not Half A#@$#.

    Not sure what you mean, Flash Player is both a plugin (for Firefox and other browser) and an ActiveX control for Internet Explorer.

  • Why are there so many updates for Adobe Flash & Reader?

    It seems like I am having to update at least once a week. This is very tedious. Also, $39 to chat with someone about my issue???

    There aren't that many. For instance Adobe Reader XI had updates in January, February and May, only three this year.
    What there are is a great many SCAMS from people who say they want you to update, and instead fill your computer with goodness knows what.
    If you aren't sure whether you have been taken in by one of these, a good thing to do is to post a screen shot of the message telling you to update (don't try to reply with a screen shot in an email, it won't work).

  • License for Fonts bundled with Adobe Reader

    The free Adobe Reader 9 comes bundled with the fonts "Minion Pro" and "Myriad". According to the license of Adobe Reader, these fonts are part of the software and can be used under the same terms. Unfortunately, several clauses of the license do not properly match typical use of fonts. For example, the license does not clearly state whether the fonts may be used with other applications, such as Microsoft Word, in commercial work.
    Is there an official position of Adobe on this issue?
    Best regards,
    Konrad

    Hi Michael,
    The Adobe License Manager (ALM) currently does not support the use case that you mention, but your suggestion has been communicated to the appropriate folks as a possible product enhancement in the future.
    Thanks!

  • Why is there a paid subscription for Adobe Reader iOS, even for CC Members?

    When I try to export from a pdf on my Adobe Reader app on my iPad, it asks me for $2.00 per month subscription fee. I'm logged in with my CC account, so should there be an extra subscription for something you'd assume is included in the CC license?

    There is no connection between your Creative Cloud account and Adobe Reader on an iOS device.
    Acrobat and Reader are developed by a different unit within Adobe. The only connection is that Adobe Acrobat Pro is offered as part of your CC subscription for desktop use.
    The Acrobat unit is trying to generate revenue by offering certain services by subscription (e.g., EchoSign, etc.)

  • There is a problem with adobe reader

    how do i fix this?

    I am having this same problem currently.  I am completely unable to open any PDFs online or even
    open Adobe Reader, period. Just says that an internal error has occured. I've tried uninstalling, then reinstalling the entire program as well as some other solutions posted on the Adobe website, but to no avail. The computer's operating system is Vista and I've downloaded the latest Adobe version 10 X.  Anyone have any ideas as what to do next?

  • Why are there so many problems with the early 2008 Mac Pro ???

    Hi everybody out there using Mac Pro's early 2008,
    I found out there is a lot of problems with the early 2008 Mac Pro.
    My early 2008 Mac Pro has been repaired ones under warranty and now it stopped working again ! Also see under: Mac Pro early 2008 no chime and does not start up. Why is this ????
    It worked well for about 2 years and then it just fails and i had this failing issue twice already !!! Is this just a BAD Apple product or how do you think I need to approach this. Let’s face it, these machine don’t come cheap and you at least expect them to work without problems for 4-5 years. What is happening here ???
    Cheers, Kavango

    go to a black screen after 15 minutes or a couple hours
    That is probably an indication that you need to find a new graphics card.
    RE: Mac Pro Replacement Graphics cards
    1) Apple brand cards,
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
    3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
    ... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
    1) Apple brand cards:
    • Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5
    • Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
    2) "sold in the Apple store" cards
    • NVIDIA Quadro 4000, about US$1200
    • NVIDIA Quadro 5000, about US$2500
    3) "Mac Edition" cards -- REQUIRE 10.8.3 or later:
    • SAPPHIRE HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 MAC Edition, about US$480** Vendor recommends Mac Pro 4,1
    • EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
    The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
    If you are Meet ALL of these:
    • running 10.8.3 or later AND
    • don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
    • can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
    You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

  • TS1559 Why are there so many issues with the iPhone 4S?  The WiFi setting on the 4S becoming greyed out is certainly NOT a rare instance.

    Why does the iPhone 4S keep losing the ability to connect to a WiFi server?  This is a repeat issue with one of our phones!

    I had the same problem with my iphone 4S, ios 7.1.2. The wifi button was grayed out for some time now. I tried several methods that I found in various forums, including the reset of network settings, airplane mode, fridge and more. NOTHING!
    Then I finally did what I wanted to avoid - the heating method, and it worked as follows:
    1. iPhone turned on, I held a hair dryer close to it while keeping the screen on and watching it while heating the iphone with the hair dryer.
    2. When the temperature warning came up on the screen, I put the iphone aside to cool up in room temperature (shut off the display). I turned it on/off couple of times until I saw that the warning was gone and normal screen came back.
    3. The wifi was still grayed out.
    4. I then did the network settings reset,
    iphone wifi was back to normal!!

  • Why are there so many problems with 7.01 and 7.02?

    Loading 7.01 and then 7.02 on both the iphone 4s and the iPad2 resulted in a complete factory restore of both the phone and the iPad.  I then had to completely restore from a backup.  Friends are reporting the same issue.  What is happening APPLE?  Is this the begining a major quality control issue?  Is this what to expect with future updates? 

    Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
