Yes, licencing issues tend to be quite confusing.

For example, we have an "editable embedding licence for 5 computers" for
Adobe Minion Pro (no Acrobat product with the de-bundling problem) or a
"5-user license" for Bitstream Letter Gothic.
I suppose we did the right things according to the licence. But you're never
sure.
