Questions

I need to find the codes for the Oldstyle tabular glyphs provided in this font. (I'm using PDFlib to build strings that include these glyphs.) Thnx!

Okay I'm looking at oodles of fonts. I'm looking for a font that says "modern (as in Internet age) yet still a conservative business." Dang if I know that would be. I've toyed with everything from Requiem (very elegant conservative) to Neuropol (futuristic). I guess I'll be here a while. But I thought I'd ask if anyone had any favorite fonts that would fit that theme... (I don't mind purchasing a font if I can find the right look.) Back to the game.... Thanks, Phyllis

I need to match the Helvetica Neue fonts listed in InDesign's "MIssing Fonts" dialog (viewed when opening the document). I already have older Type 1 version of all the weights, but I would like to purchase the OT fonts to match the font names exactly so that this dialog box does not appear. Here's what one document is asking for: "Helvetica Neue LT Pro 75 Bold" also "...65 Medium" and "...45 Light" Here's what another document is asking for: "Helvetica Neue LT LT 45 Light" (Yes, the 'LT' is duplicated) I am not able to locate Helvetica Neue in the Adobe Store with "Pro" in the name. Does anybody have an idea what is up with the 'Lt Lt'? Maybe these aren't even Adobe's fonts (Linotype appears to call their own "Neue Helvetica")? Any suggestions appreciated, thanks. Bart Blubaugh

Hi, Could you tell me what is the font please? thank you http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/595/textjw9.th.jpg

I know my question is probably out of place. I'm researching her for my typography class. Having a tough time finding recent information on Carol. I was able to find things about her past and what she has designed. I know she did work for Adobe, so I figured I'd try.

Hi, I have to mix another font with a logo that uses Bauhaus. Any ideas about either a serif or non serif font that goes well with Bauhaus? Thanks, L.

We use Myriad Pro for some brochures in foreign languages. When I type the letter 'й' in Myriad Pro (OTF) Regular for example it shows correctly in InDesign. When I use an italic it becomes a 'u'. This is a problem with the font, has anybody an idea what to do in such a case? We bought the font from Adobe, are their updates available or can I fix it myself? A workaround I have been using for now is to skew the regular. :°/

i think it was created on a mac.. anyone know what font this is? http://kablooey.net/larryisbananas/larrylogo.jpg

Any suggestions on how I can remove InDesign CS2 when I am getting an error message, "The wizard was interrupted before Adobe InDesign CS2 could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again."

I would like to mention something about this fashion of giving proper names and titles small initial letters. It looks absolutely awfull through my designers eyes. Is it not true that in the written word a proper name is defined by a capital letter? Otherwise, how would you know if it was a proper name or not? Therefore, does it not follow that if a written word does not have a capital letter it cannot by definition be a proper name? Therefore, in such cases as that rubbish and ludicrously expensive 2012 London Olympics logo the word 'london' on the logo is actually just gobbledygook because without a capital letter it cannot be a proper name and as far as I know there is no such word as 'london'. The only way it could be a proper name is if the first letter was a capital 'i', but is there such a place as Iondon (pronounced 'Eye-ondon')? And if there is, what Olympics are being held there in 2012? You have to have some way of defining a proper name otherwise confusion can be the resu

I am having trouble making sense of the descriptions. The actual otf family package seems to come with the following Optical flavours Caption Regular/undesignated Subhead Display Weights Undesignated Medium Semi-bold Bold Slant Undesginated (Roman) Italic I assume that MinionPro-Semibold.otf is the regular optical flavour, but how does MinionPro-Regular.otf differ from MinionPro-Medium.otf and MinionPro-Capt.otf differ from MinionPro-MediumCapt.otf?

Am I doing this right? Any advice for a young typographer? I do my typography, mostly for web and textile, in Flash. It has some pretty decent anti-aliasing. Not as good as Firefox, but better than what I've seen Photoshop and Illustrator being able to do. Granted, "Export Image" has a tendency to blur things, but if I take screenshots from within Flash and paste them into Photoshop, I get very clean and crisp results. Flash is also very simple. It's very easy to break up the letters (if the kerning is inaccurate, which it often is) and then re-adjust things manually.

I believe I need this question answered first and then I can go into other questions: Can a Post Script font from a Mac be used on a PC?

I create correct entries in tables and create font with FDK 2.0-WIN. I think either the FDK is at fault or the error message is wrong. Otherwise the italic weight should also get error. That is the FDK appends "Italic" to the "Full Name" but not "Regular". I have been sent new compareFamily by colleague Bob Tremallo (sent to him by Read Roberts in September) but it didn't help. compareFamily report: Single Face Test 3: Check that name ID 4 (Full Name) starts with same string as Preferred Family Name, and is the same as the CFF font Full Name. Error: Mac platform Full Name name id 4) 'Scherzo Pro' is not the same as the font CFF table Full Name, 'Scherzo Pro Regular', for Font ScherzoPro-Regular. FontMenuNameDB: [ScherzoPro-Regular] f=Scherzo Pro s=Regular [ScherzoPro-Italic] f=Scherzo Pro s=Italic Font Header: FontName ScherzoPro-Regular FullName Scherzo Pro Regular

I used to use ATM in Windows XP so that I could use the Multiple Master typefaces. Having downgraded to Vista on my new computer I cannot use ATM and so have had to buy Minion Pro Optical sets. However I cannot use them as I can't get to the small caps and old style figures. Previously these were in a separate file (the expert file) and I just switched typefaces. Now, in applications like Microsoft Word I cannot do that. Should I just buy a copy of the old type one (non-optical) faces and install them?

I am working on a project and am looking for a font that mimics this australian road sign. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b2/Australian_National_Route_M80.svg/748px-Australian_National_Route_M80.svg.png&imgrefurl=http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Australian_National_Route_M80.svg&h=600&w=748&sz=41&hl=en&start=19&usg=__8P3-uCdlvk5IKO4fngSTcX8wRJE=&tbnid=qGfQMbAkt4V-9M:&tbnh=113&tbnw=141&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dm80%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG Sorry for the long link. thanks in advance.

first, the adobe login and customer support pages are terrible. I had trouble logging in---the login toggled between claiming it did know me and that my name was already registered. I could not find a simple place to ask a pre-sales question, either. could someone please send me an email where to inquire about specific fonts PRE-SALES? I have a specific strange problem. My typesetter has used a particular set of fonts, that are so old that he does not remember where he got them from. I am 90% sure that they are adobe-linotype fonts, though. most work just fine, except for Optima fonts (op.pfb)---which I believe is another hint that these are adobe fonts, because the forums noted some problems with these fonts a long time ago. now, I want to purchase the 20 or so fonts he has used. I can get the afm files and the pfb files from him. is there a sales rep who we can email the fonts to, and this sales rep would then tell us what I need to purchase? [And, I also need the Optima font with

I would like to purchase some of the Swiss 721 SWA fonts that come with InDesign 3, but cannot find them in the Type listing. How can I buy these?

I have a situation where Arial Narrow (TT)v 1.15 and Arial Narrow OTTT v 2.35 are installed in the library/fonts folder. when I open a doc on my 10.5x mac(created elsewhere on a mac) that uses the older version in ID3 , it will not even see the older TT, but wants to substitute the 2.35. How can I force ID to recognize two versions of this font or at least to use the older one when called for?I have to swap this file back and forth several times during a production cycle and it's a gib pain in the butt. There are about five fonts like this in the document. If there's an article about font loading order and/or recognition, I'd love to read it. I coudn't find one.

Is there a way to add type to photos of t-shirts and making it seem real? Like making the type follow the angle and bumps of the surface. http://www.mistershape.com/blog/images/dnabig.jpg I was hoping there'd be an easier way out than having to exactly model the t-shirt in some 3D application, render just the type and then superimpose it on top of the real photo. I could just get the t-shirt printed and then take real photographs of it, but I can't quite afford that yet. So is there a way to do this using Adobe products? Note: I posted this in a couple of different forums, I hope y'all don't mind.

Our U.S.-based office prints packaging for asian colleagues. Their InDesign, Illustrator, and PDF files contain asian character sets. Often, the supplied fonts and embedded fonts are unfamiliar and unavailable in the U.S.. I'm concerned that font substitution or other text changes can occur nonetheless. I don't want to recommend that they covert type to outlines. Are there any general guidelines or best practices that will ensure we-- and our print suppliers-- accurately reproduce what our asian designers intended? Can you recommend some high quality fonts for traditional and simplified Chinese languages?

1.) I'm looking for a big bold font that will look good in all caps to be used for a logo for a site targeting professional educators. Anyone have any advice? 2.) I also need a nice lighter font to contrast with it as part of the logo, the logo has 2 words. Thanks for any advice!!!!

I posted an article several minutes ago that I can't find for some reason. Anyway the problem was Adobes OTF fonts unreadable by windows. I finally figured out that the problem was due tu /3GB switch. When I turn it on OTF fonts (link minion....) cannot be read by windows. I remove the switch, restart windows and evething is working fine. Why is this happening? Thank you.
