svg font problem

[Carolina Hidalgo]

Hi,

I need to make a banner with a font that is not in Google Fonts, so I tried to upload it in Font Squirrel, but couldn't:
"ITC has requested that their font ITC Avant Garde Pro Bk Regular be blacklisted by the Generator. You will not be able to convert this font"

So I tried to use it like SVG (in Illustrator) but when I save the font it doesn't apply the changes, it looks like Times New Roman ...
so I tried creating outlines, but this make the font very heavy for use it a banner..

What can I do? How can I use this font in SVG but in light way?

Thanks!
