use COMMON fonts like Arial, Times, etc.

This thread is making me worry about the pdf files that I've created. Precisely because some of the fonts I like to use are not very common, I've been converting some of my marketing materials, created in Word, to pdfs, assuming that this would preserve faces regardless of what's installed on a user's machine. Have I been wrong in this assumption? I always thought that pdfs were the universal format, independent of platform or installed fonts.
