From the FAQ to this (https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/using/...censing.html):



Can you think of any way a Kindle (mobi) file (to use their terminology) can protect the font data aside from subsetting?
I realize that you very much want your method to work. I think I outlined, above, why Adobe may not agree that your method meets that less-restrictive fAQ article, rather than their MORE-restrictive, actual, governing, Terms of use document, which I not only read, but quoted from, right?

I even quoted the same part you are referencing and I then said "BUT, it goes on to say..."

And I cited Section 3.(4), in numerous places. I think it's highly questionable whether Adobe would consider removing the obfuscation part of what they'd agreed to, for the Cloud fonts. Regardless of the fact that you subsequently subset them or relied on Amazon's encryption.

Section E(5) includes, as prohibited "...or defeating, bypassing, or otherwise circumventing any software protection mechanisms..." Right there. How do you get around that? Given that that's exactly what you're doing?

But hey, that's just me.
