Hi,

I have a question about adobe font/type product. Basically I am looking for Garamond 3 font for my project. However, I need to know the following before buying from Adobe:
1. How do I buy the font?
2. Will the package include .AFM (Adobe Font Metric) file?
3. Is the font platform dependent? If my server runs on Solaris9, would I still be able to use it?
4. If it is platform dependent, do I have an option to buy the TTF (true type font) to run on Windows?
5. How does the licensing work?

Hopefully someone can help me.

Dany
