lost adobe jenson font

I purchased InDesign CS3, CS2, CS1, and CS6 all from the Adobe Store. I had to reformat my HD and lost Adobe Jenson Pro, which was included with InDesign CS3. CS6 does not include it. I contacted Adobe Support to see if I could download Jenson Pro, since it came with a product ordered directly from the Adobe Store. They said I had to purchase InDesign CS6, which I already had. I spoke wth Sudhakar, who perhaps has problems comprehending his company. Is there a way legally to get the font? I can download it illegally, and it will not be illegal for me, since I supposedly own it, but I don't want to risk the virus.

    None of the Adobe Jenson fonts were bundled with CS5.5 either http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/fontinstall/cs5installedfonts.html

    Only CS2 had Adobe Jenson fonts http://blogs.adobe.com/typblography/fonts-installed-by-adobes-creative-suite#CS2

    Since no members of the Adobe Jenson font family are bundled with any of the CS6 products, the easiest way of retrieving those fonts would be to access the font files themselves from backups you made of your system prior to reformatting your disk.

    You do regular backups, don't you?

    My wife's iMac computer was stolen, recovered, but with Windows installed.  I have been rebuilding everything, slowly, and this font is the final part of the equation.

    I will look at the CS5.5 discs to see if it is there.

    Thank you for the help. That font was used in our wedding invitation, so it has special significance. Solved.

    Can I ask how you solved this issue?  I have tried several ways to get Jenson Pro activated in CS6, but no success to date
