Thread Subject: unknown font in save figure as PDF

Hi everyone!
I want to save my figures as pdf-files. Cause I'm using word 2007 with its new font "cambria" I changed all the text in the figure to this font as well. This works. So in general Matlab knows the font.
-> save as *.pdf

BUT:
In the created pdf-file, the font is not "cambria" but "courier new"! So I guess that the converter does not know the font?
Saving as *.png for example works.

Does anybody have an idea to solve this problem? Adding font-info to the converter? I'm not really deep in the software-stuff, so I would be really grateful for some help.

Thanks a lot!
Bernd
