Hey Ronnie, great to hear from you. Thanks for the details on this font, I didnt realise there were so many types!!
Im actually hoping I can use this font in PS (or Illustrator) so would it available on my MBPro? I cant seem to find it by doing a search on my mac so I guess not? I just did a quick google and see from most sites that it requires a purchase, although some are free and there are some alternatives. I will investigate over the coming days when I get good internet! Hope all is good back in WA Best regards Chris On 11/22/14, Ronni Brown <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Chris, > > The iOS 8 Font is Helvetica Neue.
