If you mean, Adobe Fonts in the cloud, give it up right now.

Quite simply, it doesn't work. You can't subset the fonts, without encryption. With the encryption, you can't get past ePUBcheck. Without getting past ePUBcheck, you can't publish the cursed thing. End of story.

Quoth is talking about regular, everyday, NOT in the cloud fonts. If you mean cloud fonts...fuhgeddaboudit. Adobe's assurance that you 'can" produce ebooks with their fonts only goes as far as, if the ebook will be read on your computer, or distributed in your own system, or anywhere other than ePUBcheck-required retailers.

Print designers always act like I have cooties, when I say I don't use Adobe (cloud) fonts. That's why. For eBooks, utterly worthless.
