I have spent some time searching the wiki and this mailing list and cannot find any reference to how to embed the fonts so that they will appear in the field properties of the control. I can certainly embed fonts during the PDF export, but that doesn't make them available in the field properties when I am designing the form. For example, create a list box, then right click on it and choose PDF Options > Field Properties. Under Appearance you can choose a font, but only the 14 fonts appear. There is no option for "choose a different font."
