Hi Thomas! It seems you are one of the very first to start working on "real" press material - so thanks in advance for helping to fight against remaining issues.

Let's say, given the time and opportunity, it was okay to go with this font (in my opinion). Thus, we knew that problems in advance, but since it is rather "neutral", substitutes for remaining text should work well.

Okay, I'll send you (and Ivan, whom I CCed ... asking him to check the files as well) updated files. It would be great if you could try the SVGs, as well as the EPS files. > Have you ever seen your work on a Windows PC? You know, that there is a > differnz between Linux and Windows Pixel-Width? I've seen some of the "outcome" on Windows PCs, of course.
