Im haveing font problems on my PC running Vista,<br />
<br />
I use suitcase 11 for windows.<br />
<br />
In quark 7.2, only one member of a family is ever shown. For example, if I've activated 7 fonts in the same family, only one of these variations is available, and its pot luck which one.<br />
<br />
In indesign CS, no postscript font are available.<br />
<br />
I would also be grateful for any information of why postscripts fonts are so much cheaper than tt or ot fonts, what are their disadvantages. Is it legal to purchase postscript fonts and then use a font converter to turn them into open type?<br />
<br />
thnx in advance<br />

Fonts activation problems

A font is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Each font is a matched set of type, one piece (called a "sort") for each glyph, and a typeface consists of a range of fonts that share an overall design. With the advent of digital typography, font is frequently synonymous with typeface, although the two terms do not necessarily mean the same thing. In particular, the use of "vector" or "outline" fonts means that different sizes of a typeface can be dynamically generated from one design. Each style may still be in a separate "font file" -- for instance, the typeface "Futura" may include the fonts "Futura roman", "Futura italic", "Futura bold" and "Futura extended" —- but the term "font" might be applied either to one of these alone or to the whole typeface.
