Hi,
Would you be willing to clarify this for the font novice? From what I read
into your statement, it appears that Type 1 fonts (the old Adobe PS fonts) are
being translated in the background into Unicode. Is that accurate? Is there
anything special I need to do? Or, can I just go on to use Frame and the fonts
I have (a combination of PS and TrueType fonts) just the way I always have?
Thanks,
Nancy Adams

FrameMaker 8 continues to support use of Type 1 fonts (I assume that is
what you mean by "PS fonts") as well as TrueType and OpenType fonts. The
character set of the Type 1 fonts are mapped into Unicode.
You don't say what type of "font errors" you are getting (missing fonts?
mismapped characters? What?). If you provide some specific information
including the exact font names, source of such fonts, etc. and perhaps
a sample document, we could perhaps better analyze the problem you are
experiencing and offer some assistance.
