WL Cyrillic Times is the main body text throught a 322 page book that I have exported from InDesign CS to Acrobat PDF 6.0. The files have been subsetted and embedded successfully. This font has been chosen because the text of the book is Russian language. There are few fonts that InDesign supports in the Russian language!

WL Cyrillic Times is a TrueType CID type 2 font created by Adobe for Acrobat 3. PDF's preflight Potential problems lists WL Cyrillic Times in its report. 1) Since this has been embedded just how much of a problem can it be? 2)I know technology moves on, but it seems strange that Acrobat 6.0 lists it as a potential problem.

I would put WL Cyrillic Times as a clear, readable typeface in the same basket as the Garamond family. (Adobe Garamond Pro does not support Russian). Also WL Cyrillic has a complete font family.
