Thanks for the information! A huge help in clarifying this issue. I suspected that using the same fonts was key but was in a bit of denial because the designers have already developed collateral using the PostScript fonts installed on their Macs. To switch to OpenType versions of the fonts (which will have different font names than what we've been using) will mean having to "remap" the current postscript fonts to the new OpenType fonts and then address possible word flow changes in all the collateral developed to-date. Would this be a correct assumption? For example: the PostScript of Frutiger is "Frutiger 55 Roman" while the OpenType version is "Frutiger Std Roman". If this is true, then I will have to "sell" this hard to my group and my manager but I think it will be a worthy cause to set this right now rather than later. Dan
