Hi Curtis,
I had this problem a few years back. It can be done in Acrobat. Just tried searching for the solution I found back then.
I think this is it.

I open the PDFs in Illustrator which look fine in Acrobat, but a bunch of the fonts change I suppose because I don’t have the right fonts installed.

Does anybody know of a utility that will convert the fonts to outlines before I open them in Illustrator?  Or, maybe there’s a trick to get them to open as outlines in Illustrator?

I opened one in Acrobat, and exported the pages as EPS, but the fonts are still fonts when I open those exported EPS in Ai.

I understand I can buy the font, and ID it on whatthefont, but just wondering if there’s a way to do this another way.

Thanks,
Jim Curtis
