I am going through our font library and removing type 1 versions to promote people using the more stable opentype versions. I have come across European PI, and the characters are missing on the opentype version. In adobe Illustrator I cannot get that app to allow me to use the font as it goes to myriad overtime I choose.

Anyone out there  have these fonts and can you let me know how they are working for you.

Some glyphs are int the font, but cannot find what keystone to access this. ON PC I remember you can use the numeric keypad to enter U numb res but not sure on how to do on Mac which I am on.

Hi Mike,

did you ever found a solution?

Here a link to the German Illustrator forum on hilfdirselbst.ch where the issue came up today:

Schrift lässt sich nicht zuweisen

https://www.hilfdirselbst.ch/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=569937#569937

It's reported that InDesign CC 2019 is showing no problem using the font.

Wheras with Illustrator CC 2019 there still is an issue.

Regards,
Uwe

Though there also definitely  seem to be a technical issue with Illustrator.
