From the PDF metadata in the two PDF files:

Creator:        Adobe InDesign CS4 (6.0.5)
Producer:       Adobe PDF Library 9.0

Creator:        Adobe InDesign CS5 (7.0.3)
Producer:       Adobe PDF Library 9.9

I should mention that PDF metadata is somewhat unreliable -- it's quite
possible that the files were modified by some other software, without
changing the metadata.

The first one has both 8-bit and 16-bit CFF fonts embedded in
SFNT/OpenType wrappers, with no other tables.

The second one has just 8-bit fonts, which have 'CFF ' and 'cmap'
tables (and no other tables).
