Fonts in form fields not rendering correctly

I created an interactive PDF in InDesign and set all the fonts, but when I open in Acrobat, the fonts aren't correct when I fill in the fields. I have those fonts installed. I have tried toggling on & off use local fonts. If I just insert text into the PDF in Acrobat (not in field,) the font I want renders correctly. If I open in Preview it also works, but I have some 'Auto' size fields and opening in Preview corrupts those. Any advice?

Be sure that the font licence allows it to be embedded in a (PDF) document.
