if the font was downloaded from dafont and uploaded to Abstract Fonts, the versions are identical.
It shows your name because you uploaded it, not because that information is embedded in the font file itself. I can add a designer with your name and assign that font to be under your name but that doesnt mean that the font itself contains your name. Which it should so you can be identified as the author no matter where the font is downloaded from.
I also checked windows font viewer and shows the same embedded info as Abstract Fonts does.
You have to update the font data in the Font Creator.

No such thing as a nor cal font. But if you want to know which one was used try any of these ('l' is slightly modified).
How come so many companies seem to believe that copyright means"'I take the right to copy"? Or do they simply mean "I have copied this. Alright?"

So i guess you didnt like the idea of having a constant name as "Laurier" or "Kinryu" and only update the version fields to say "Version 14" or something.
So if i approve this font, should i remove all other ones since they are a subset of the latest one?
And if someone linked to Laurier for example, it will be a broken link now. Not ideal...

Here's something that should work, but usually doesn't.
Microsoft Word gives you a number of Save As options, such as Word Document, Rich Text Format, WordPerfect document, etc. in the 'Save as type' field in the Save As dialog box. One of the options is to save the document as Web Page. If you don't use MS Word to make your web page, the program you use may offer this option as well. Saving an MS Word document as Web page creates an html document and a file folder which will contain any graphics which have been inserted into the document. This is very similar to what happens when you save a web page from the Internet.
In MS Word, go to Tools in the Menu Bar. Select Options.... from the drop down list. Select the Save tab in the Options dialog box. Check the boxes for Embed True Type fonts and Embed characters in use only. Click OK to close the document, and save the document.
For this to work, the font you're using must have embedding features enabled. This feature is determined by the font designer, but can be modified with some font making/editing programs. For example, I can change embedding settings with FontLab Studio5, but not with ScanFont.
The font being embedded must always be installed on the computer you're using to make the document. If you create a document with an embedded font, don't uninstall that font, because that can affect not only the document you've made, but also any other documents on your computer that have the same font embedded. It can also affect the font itself, and any copies of that font that are on your computer.- None of the character glyphs will appear when you open that font in preview!
This also happens if you rename a font that has already been installed. As far as I could tell, the only way to restore the font is to delete all copies on your computer, delete any documents which have the font embedded, and reacquire the font from wherever you got it in the first place. I have used this procedure to attempt to embed fonts, and it has worked succcessfully once, with a font called 24hourbauer. I've also caused myself a lot of grief by trying to do this with other fonts, even ones I've made myself, where I have personally set the embedding paramenters.
It's also possible that this works properly for any embedible font, provided that all features of MS Word have been properly installed. I don't wan't to test that feature badly enough to uninstall/reinstall MS Word, just to test embedding.
If you do want to try this, I recommend you do the following:
1) Before starting, send yourself an e-mail, with the font you want to use as an attachment. That way, you can retrieve it later, if other copies become corrupted.
2) Make sure you know where every copy of that font is on your computer, either installed, in a .zip, or in another folder. This includes copies which have the same font name in the header, but don't have the same file name, ie: You download a font named ASQRDBD_.TTF, and rename it to match the title given to the font by the author Both will be corrupted.
3) Create the document, and enable the embedding features.
4) E-mail the document with embedding to someone else, or to yourself, for the purpose of viewing it on another computer which does not have the font installed, to see if the embedding worked. The second computer used to check embedding is not at risk. Either the embedded characters will appear corrrectly, or MS Word will use a default font like Times New Roman or, in some cases, Fixedsys.
I make fonts, and have experimewnted with embedding, but I gave up on it when it corruped some of my fonts. This was a big problem when I was making new fonts. I often make multiple versions of a font with the same name, to see if the glyphs need additional editing. If I install version 1.0 of my font, embed 1.0 in a document, uninstall 1.0, then create and install version 1.1, I run the risk of having all versions of 1.0 and 1.1 corrupted. So the key things in this are:
1) Don't Uninstall a font which has been used in any ambedded document on your computer.
2) Test the embedding by viewing the embedded document on a computer which does not have the embedded font installed.
I learned all of this the hard way.

Some more digging explained. The DIN-Medium is a Acrobat default replacement for a sand typeface if the original was not embedded in the PDF.

DRW is a vector format. As such doesn't need to be opended in Draw to be converted. The font may not be embedded but the vector file is still readable. Thus ...

Changed, but you must admit that it is a bit confusing since there is this info embedded in the font file:
"... 1. The designer as well as owner of this font is Juan Casco ..."

Yep Swallow. RETURNTOEARTH (enStep Incorporated), which is Goudy OldStyle expanded to 150%, is probably not installed and not embedded in the document file and is substituted by Word with Microsoft's wingdings.
