If I create .pdf and .swf files with embedded fonts that were supplied with one of Adobe products, lets say I'll use 'MinionPro-Regular', 'MyriadPro-Semibold' and 'NewsGothicStd-Oblique', and if I then publish such a file on-line, do I need a special web embedding licence for these fonts, or does 'editable (embedding)' also cover such use of fonts? Is there any difference between publishing files for commercial and non-commercial purposes? TIA.

These forums are Adobe User-to-User forums and are generally not monitored officially by Adobe. It is not an outlet for Adobe official technical support or customer support.

There are no issues with embedding Adobe fonts in pdf documents. I doubt it would be an issue with flash files, but I could not give you an authoritative answer.

Thank you. And such .pdf files can then be published on-line, the assumption being that they will be downloaded by users who don't have the Adobe fonts?

Is font embedding in Flash some sort of a taboo topic? Whenever I ask about it, I'm met with a wall of silence. I'm potentially interested in purchasing new fonts, but only if I'd be allowed to embed them in Flash. Therefore I need to know what sort of licence I'd need for that, and what sort of licence my customers would need to publish such files on-line. Dear Adobe, it seems to be a fairly straightforward matter, since I'm interested only in Adobe Original typefaces. If a special licence is needed, then fine, so be it, but please, could someone answer my question?

Yes. But I don't see how I can contact Adobe support other than by phone - I'm interested in a written response in English. I'd be grateful if you could direct me to the appropriate person(s). Thank you.
