Opentype font converted to type 1??

stevend

Hi all,

Could anybody explain the following situation:

I’m using an Opentype font (Type1 flavour) in AICS2 and export it to a pdf.
When i check the fonts in acrobat they are presented (or converted) to a Type1.
So the font is using the type1 icon and not the opentype icon. I saw pdf’s before with opentype fonts / using the opentype icon. Why is that?

thx,
Steven
