It is a PDF file opening in Adobe Reader and not recognizing some fonts (as written in your article).
How can solve this? I need to print the document
Or, if they're using Adobe Acrobat to create the PDF, have them recreate it and this time select to embed the fonts in the document. Then you shouldn't need to have them installed on your computer.
Will Acrobat not embed the correct font within the document, Tom, so that the user doesn't need to have the font installed on the computer?

It's worth a try perhaps, but the problem is that the "correct" font for Windows (Arabic Transparent in this case) will not normally display usable Arabic on a Mac. The two platforms use different technologies for complex scripts like Arabic, so you need to switch the font to the Mac version or be able to open the doc with certain apps that can deal with Windows Arabic fonts.
I am running the latest version of Adobe (version 9) - isn't there some way I can edit the preferences on Adobe to force it to use my preferred Arabic font instead of Simplified Arabic?
But I thought in your earlier post you said that a Mac would not be able to handle these Windows fonts?
