I'd go with OpenType because it can be used more places and is more flexible.
In Distiller, make sure that Distiller is set to embed fonts, and that
the directories in which your fonts are stored are listed...
If you install the font properly in Windows, FM will recognize it. I
don't know e-Publisher, but if it conforms to Windows conventions,
there isn't any reason it wouldn't see the font.

Framers,
I'm looking to purchase a font to use in my documentation. I'd like it
to work in FrameMaker, display in my PDF and in e-Publisher. There are
several options when I try to purchase it. They are opentype (PC, Mac),
Win TrueType, and WinPostScript. Which one do I need?
I am using FrameMaker 7.2 with the distiller option that comes with it,
and e-Publisher 9.2 on Windows XP.
Once I purchase the font, how do I get these applications to recognize
it? What directory do I need to add it to?
Thanks for your help,
