Handling font substitution
If you open or import a file that uses fonts not installed on your system, you can choose to replace the missing fonts or substitute fonts installed on your system. You may also have to reapply or substitute fonts if you transfer a document between Windows and Macintosh platforms, if the original fonts are not available on the other platform or the fonts have different names. You can use Macromedia Fontographer to create compatible versions of fonts for both Windows and the Macintosh; for more information on Macromedia products, go to the Macromedia Web site at http://www.macromedia.com.
Replacing fonts strips all manual kerning applied to the fonts. Substituting fonts temporarily substitutes fonts when the illustration is opened.
