A lady I know changed computers. Now one of her old publisher files pulls up saying that the old font (Abadi MT light condensed) is unavailable. I was going to try to find the font or something similar for her, but everywhere I search, I get redirected to fonts.com which wants to charge $22 bucks or more for any font I search for. Am I looking in the wrong places?

Copyright: Monotype Corp
A TrueType version of this font is provided free with the Microsoft Office Value Pack (Macintosh).
So looks like its copyrighted,unless you can find a publishing suite that includes it your going to have to pay $22 to install it.
Why not just transfer the fonts from the old machine??? Am I missing anything here???
I am sure he thought of that. I was going to say the same thing too, but from the sounds of it the old PC is long gone... ;) Can't hurt to say it though!Quote:

And that's why I love the WD forums. Thanks.Quote:
