 I used to have the same problem, but it's quite easy to resolve by extracting fonts from pdfs you need to edit. Follow these steps:
1) Download fontforge to mingw (http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ms-install.html)
2) Extract fontforge and run the fontforge batch file
3) Open your pdf that you need to extract the font from and then choose the font you need (beware that sometimes limited characters are available)
4) In the menu choose Element -> Font Info
5) Ensure that the font name, family name and human name all match the name of the font in the original pdf document (done by selecting File -> Properties in Acrobat) - please note if the font is copyright (don't use fonts illegally)
6) In fontforge, generate the font as a truetype (matching original font in pdf) and save to a place where you can easily find it
7) Copy the font file to your windows\fonts\ folder, and you should be able to use the font after this

Looks easy to make in FontStruct.
speed vs quality ... simple vs complex ...
The wtf recognition system is fast because it does not really matches but only looks at a few reference points. And ... I am pretty sure ... not all fonts are in the matching database. All too often it does not recognize a font they actually sell.
Oh, don’t ask me … ;^D
Whoa!!!! Why the hell WTFont doesn't recognize the M if the typeface is in their database then????
Hi all!
I've just visited this forum. Happy to get acquainted with you. Thanks.
