Can you elaborate on this, if I type c it does just that, gives me a c, I have to option-g to get the copyright. > It's trying to be bloody helpful and failing I can find the � and the � key > without help.

Actually, it turned out to be a problem with the font, on the forums for the font developer, it was mentioned by a handful of others as well. Somehow, me knowing nothing about fonts, I was able to get Classic up and running, get a old copy of Fontographer to open the font, convert it to True Type, and now all is AOK info/ monaco/ < as you can see :-) I was even able to set the font weight to -10 em and regenerate it, so for all you wondering, yes, we now have a acceptable anti-aliased font that really very closely mimics monaco. ! w00t! -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
