I need an Adobe Cyrillic font. I have "Baskerville Cyrillic," which displays in my font window as a Roman font. Can anyone help me choose a Cyrillic font that will display properly in InDesign and Acrobat?

    Pretty much all Adobe Unicode fonts have Cyrillic glyphs, but they will naturally not show up if

    a) you Unicode range is not set accordingly by defining a suitable region and language setting and

    b) the various substitution options in the text panels are not set correctly

    Otherwise you will have to use a "faux" Crillic font that maps those glyphs to the normal Western/ Latin range. It's really more an issue with your input configuration than requiring a specific font. You could even use the lame way and just write the stuff in a Word Document and then copy&paste it - if your document language is properly defined as e.g. Russion, Word will type out the correct characters even if the system language is different...

    8 years later, where did you move this to? How about a link? Vagueness rules today.
