On our side, we are at a dead end with the OpenType font we purchased as we cannot get satisfactory results with the work-arounds that Adobe suggest for particular fonts. Also, apparently, the problem with our fonts (Gill Sans Std and Adobe Garamond Pro) lies with Windows OS and not the Mac, so the 10.4.9 update did not help. There now seems to be plenty of documentation on this problem with particular fonts (the problem seems to vary depending on the font family). Frankly, Adobe, this is unacceptable. If we purchase fonts that claim to be cross-platform, shouldn't they be? I would like to know, if anyone from Adobe is looking at this thread, what both Adobe and Microsoft are doing about this? Thanks.
