Question

Fira Sans Condensed SemiBold is coming up as "OpenType Type 1.

Fira Sans Condensed SemiBold is coming up as "OpenType Type 1." It's creating errors with the printer. They won't allow any type 1 fonts anymore, and we need this design to be approved by the printer for the upcoming issue. I am not sure where else to report this. I looked at the path in Indesign, and it says, "Activated from Adobe Fonts" so it's not our computers...
Anyone know where I can report this to get this fixed?

Thanks!
Sonja

    Someone is making a mistake. Opentype Type 1 fonts are not going away. This is the normal kind of font we all use today. What is going away is Type 1 fonts (not OpenType). Your printer should know this! If you can't convince them, find a different one.

      Addendum. I just realized most people might think I mean our office printer device. I mean we have a magazine that gets printed at a printing plant. And they don't allow Type 1 fonts anymore. Sorry for any confusion.
