Summary	0004224: AcroForm fields not properly exporting non-core face face styling.
Description	If you specify a font face on a field (using the properties palette) Scribus shows any values in that font face and properly lists it for embedding. Upon export to PDF 1.4 or 1.5 however, the font-face in the DA key (default appearance) references the "Font for use with PDF 1.3" font from the field properties. eg. DA => '/Helv 12.00000 Tf <colour info>' Thanks
Steps To Reproduce	1. Create a new document 2. Add an AcroForm text field 3. In the 'Properties' (not 'Field Properties') palette assign a non-core font. 4. Export to PDF (> 1.3)
Additional Information	Adobe PDF 1.4 Reference Section 8.6.2 Page 534 Tabel 8.5.1 ( http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/PDFReference.pdf) defines that any text or graphics state operators are valid (meaning embedded fonts are fair game).
