format is the /usr/share/fonts/OTF directory. Please review

And now that I see the other adobe fonts, they have the same
problem. And the packages, shouldn't they be prefixed with an
"otf-" term to be consistent with other fonts in the repositories?
("ttf-" for TrueType, "type1-" for Type 1 PS and "font-" for
bitmaps and sundry).
There's nothing wrong with installing the files there. fontconfig
will crawl the entire tree inside the fonts folder.
