K,
That's a amusing observation of font names. If a MS Word doc is using the Adobe Helvetica and the next user only has a MonoType Helvetica, then Word will substitute the MonoType font without warning. Then if the next user has neither font, Word will substitute a "Helvetica like" font, again without warning. A PDF created from this document will be problematic when pre-flighted.. I'm planning to use LC to produce "print ready" PDFs. +100 to the mother ship for removing LiveCode's phony font styling .

Given that the font world calls eighteenth century font designs 'Modern' and early/mid 19th century sans-serifs 'Grotesque', I wouldn't hold my breath... ;) k _____ Keith Martin Senior Lecturer, LCC (University of the Arts London) _____ _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
