If you are designing in InDesign and need to provide the native files to a printer, you use the File/Package function, which collects all your placed images and used fonts into a "Package" along with your INDD file and a text document which lists things such as placed graphics, fonts, etc. Then give the entire package to the printer. Alternatively, you can give a PDF mechanical to the printer if that is acceptable to them, which has the fonts embedded in it.
That, actually, would have been my first choice, but they preferred submission by PDF...
Which is one reason why I'm confused about the "not having the font" thing...
