This is very unfortunate. I am one of the persons very much disappointed at Illustrator's inability to utilize OpenType features. In fact, with Illustrator you are better off loading the old version Type 1 font (if you need expert sets etc.). For example, Adobe Garamond Pro has all combined features of old Adobe Garamond expert sets. But these features work only under InDesign and Photoshop. Adobe must quickly rectify this since for ads etc. you really need OT features. I prefered to do my posters, ads etc. in Illustrator than InDesign. Now I am doing them in InDesign. Tresa
