Yes, that's right. Locate the texmf.cnf that your installation is  
using (kpsewhich texmf.cnf), open and edit it. The value you're  
looking for is font_mem_size (around line 520, I think), and you can  
set it to a value up to 4000000; the default is too low for use with  
fonts with extended kerning information (like many Adobe fonts).
