Purchasing Fonts

[Ridder, Fred]

You should be able to use any of these font technologies without
any major problems. I'd tend to recommend OpenType mainly
because it is the newest technology and because both Adobe 
and Microsoft were involved in developing it. 

When installing fonts on a Windows system you use the Control
Panel's Fonts tool. And there is no particular advantage to having 
the tool install the font in any location other than the default font 
folder.

My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

Subject: Purchasing Fonts

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,
Carrie Keeling
