(This message last edited 17 Jan 2004 to clarify details and remove one font from the list.)

Bonus fonts bundled only with the Creative Suite - and not with the individual programs sold separately - are the *entire* Warnock Pro Opticals family. Additionally, the entire Brioso Pro opticals family is offered as an online registration incentive for North American customers, as one of several choices of bonus goodies. If you get both, that's an extra 74 fonts! If you buy the applications separately, you still get 137 fonts, mind you.

If one buys single applications, they come with fewer fonts. To check out the differences, see the comparison here: Robert Levine, "Creative Suite vs. InDesign CS vs. Illustrator CS bundled fonts" #12, 5 Nov 2003 7:58 am"> "Creative Suite vs. InDesign CS vs. Illustrator CS bundled fonts"

Below are the fonts you get in both "standard" and "premium" versions of the Creative Suite (the professional edition does not add more fonts). All of this, including the registration bonus, applies to educational purchasers as well as the regular retail versions of the applications.

    That's very decent of you to come back and apologize. I know what tech support frustrations can be like only too well. My wife and I recently debated whether it had taken me more or fewer than 10 calls to our cable provider's tech support to get them to do the right stuff on their end to get our wireless gateway up and running! Gah. But I've spent a couple of days at an Adobe tech support call center, and I can attest that there are few tougher jobs (not counting physical laborers) than tech support.

    Anyway, you have several options:

    - switch your OS keyboard settings to the appropriate language keyboard and type directly in that language.

    - use the Mac OS character palette, and view the correct Unicode range for the language you want. A little less hunt-and-peck than the Glyph Palette for this purpose. Note that you must have the same font selected in the character palette as in InDesign.

    - use the "glyph sets" feature of the InDesign Glyph Palette to get just the glyphs you use most commonly as a group.

    I actually wrote a lengthy article on the glyph palette for the latest issue of InDesign Magazine, which you might find useful/interesting.

    Regards,

    T

    Well. I've learned a good deal in this forum.

    First, that a diplomatic (even if visibly frustrated) query is always better than a display of temper. Mea maxima culpa. At my age, I should know this.

    I can only say that I had an extremely difficult week on the phone with Adobe. My problem was that InDesign CS would not export as a PDF file. It garbled my Monotype CE (Type 1) fonts. OpenType looked like it would solve my problems, and suddenly, it didn't look as if it would.

    Thanks to Neil, Stuart, Steve, and Thomas, I can see that it will. And thanks to Steve's tip about Character Palette (I'm not sure that I said I'm on Mac OS 10.3.7), I can see that what Thomas said is true. I thought at the time of my first posting that it was commendable of Adobe to include a full set of international characters in its Adobe Pro OT fonts. But when I could not find the fairly common character I was looking for, I thought, "The concept is innovative but the execution is not up to snuff."

    However, the execution IS up to snuff, so I thank Adobe for making my life easier. I'll get with the program and convert to OT, he said contritely. Adobe does include a small, attractive, and useful collection of font families with InDesign CS, and I'll gradually buy more. They look very good.

    Question (and a polite one this time): The Monotype CE fonts had built-in macros that made accessing foreign characters relatively easy. Is there a faster way to access international characters besides searching through the glyphs until you find what you're looking for? In Word, I could write macros, but what about InDesign?

    All Adobe fonts that have a lowercase, and have a capital l-slash, also have a lowercase l-slash. So Dan is mistaken.

    Adobe has been very clear about the language support in our OpenType fonts. It varies by font, but there are standard groupings of languages, and every page of our web sales site that the fonts appear on has that information available. For the l-slash and other accented characters needed for Polish, these are available as part of "CE" language support, which is present in every Adobe font with "Pro" in the name.

    Although I sympathize with a desire to support more languages, I can't see that the fact that not all OpenType fonts support Polish somehow would mean that nobody should buy them. Polish support is far more common in OpenType than it was in Type 1.

    Cheers,

    T

    On the Mac, as an alternative to the ID Glyph Palete for finding Unicode glyphs, you can use the OS X Character Palette: In its Unicode mode, it can show glyphs in numeric order or by code sets. That's worth poking around in. It also has a great feature where you can select the glyph you want, and then see all the fonts on your system which have the glyph!

    Hi danpink,

    I'm on ID2, which has Adobe Caslon Pro and Adobe Garamond Pro. After some hunting around in the glyphs palette I was able to find the barred L in both upper and lower case in both of these fonts. As Neil pointed out earlier these are U+0142 and U+0141, respectively. The glyph palette (at least in ID2) isn't in Unicode order, though, so sometimes it's really hard to find certain glyphs. I found these two in the glyph palette around 50 table cells beyond the end of the normal lower case letters.

    You might have run across the barred small cap L U+F6F9. This is a few table cells beyond the end of the other small caps. This is way off in the Unicode private use area (apparently where Adobe encodes its small cap glyphs) and so it's very far away from the lowercase barred L.

    For many fonts, Adobe posts a "Glyph Complement PDF" file showing all the glyphs for that particular font. That way you can see whether a font has the glyphs you need before you buy it. For example, I don't have Minion Pro Regular, but by looking at its glyph complement file I was able to determine that it does have the upper and lower case barred Ls. Look near the bottom of this page to find the link to this glyph complement file.

    Dominic,<br /><br />We leapfrogged over each other in our posts and my post-post edits. <vbg> <br /><br />I believe I actually found the missing glyphs in a number of OpenType Pro and Std fonts, and at least a few Type 1 fonts.<br /><br />Neil

    DO NOT PAY A NICKEL for a new Open Type font!

    Why not? Many OT fonts now include vowels with macrons, which I need for my work, and they are cross-platform, and they offer nice typographic features. I'm sorry that you haven't had much luck finding your glyphs in the fonts you won't to use, but that's a decision of the font designer or foundry (made, I'm sure, on a cost versus sales analysis), and not a reflection on the font format at all. OT is in fact a real advance for those who use international characters, but no one ever said all slots would be filled in all fonts.

    dan,

    In a quick search, I selected Caslon Pro Regular, and I believe I just found the two characters you mention, l.c. at GID 146, Unicode 0142; s.c. at GID 305, Unicode 0141. And I found similar matches for a handful of other OpenType Std and Pro fonts I happen to have activated at the moment.

    I don't wish to sound provincial about this or as if I'm dismissing the issue, but to a large extent, I think you're over-reacting. Although it is possible that these and other characters are missing from certain fonts, many other folks just don't need all glyphs for all languages. Unless someone needs to do typography that requires those missing characters, there is no reason not to buy specific fonts or types of fonts.

    And consider the thousands of standard Type 1 and TrueType fonts that have far less adventurous character sets, yet have been more than adequate for most folks for many years.

    DO NOT PAY A NICKEL for a new Open Type font! All Roman fonts are missing at least one crucial letter: the small "barred L" (pronounced as a "w") used in Polish (e.g., the l in Lech Walesa's last name. The capital barred L, used less frequently, is there, but no small letter (or small cap). It's a shame. I thought this was going to be a real advance for those of us who have to use international characters, and Adobe techs have suggested it as a solution to a problem I'm having with InDesign CS. Sadly, it's not.
