Fonts
This is a font question. I've installed an Opentype family of fonts called
Frutiger. It's got 14 different fonts in the family. The problem is that not all of the brothers and sisters shows up in PPT or Word. They do show up as installed in a program like Photoshop. Is there a preference somewhere I can turn on or off? Just someplace I can address this problem?

Just someplace I can address this problem? Windows has never been good at dealing with families of fonts that include more than the basic four weights and as I recall, the internal font naming conventions are different Mac vs PC; sometimes the font may be properly set up for a Mac but not have the right info for PC. The better graphics programs tend to take fonts into their own hands rather than relying on Windows for just this reason; that might account for why Photoshop does things a bit differently from the others. But also, check to see whether Photoshop has its own private stash of fonts. At one time some of the Adobe apps did this, don't know whether they still do or not. They'd install a set of fonts in a private location where only the Adobe apps could find them. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ |
