I think the best way to handle this is to warn the user during export that
he/she is using nonstandard fonts in form fields and give a choice between a)
exporting as it is b) use a suggested/chooseable standard font as a replacement
or c) embed the full font (only if the font permits it). Pros and cons of each
choice should be explained in the online help.
