You can get the PS name of some font with otfinfo:
      -p, --postscript-name
           Print each font's PostScript name. For example:
             MinionPro-SemiboldItCapt
So:
   otfinfo -p AdobeMingStd-Light.otf
which returns
   AdobeMingStd-Light
here.

But I would be a bit surprised if you would manage to make it work that way.
Yes, it doesn't work :(

I have seen some pdf files that Acrobat Reader can automatically download fonts for them. I had thought that the reader may have some kind of font list so that if some unusual (non-base) fonts are invoked, it will just down them from the Adobe ftp. I guess I was wrong. I think I should read more about those Adobe specials.
