Why do you say the issue is with Windows? I've looked back through this whole thread and your problems all seemed to be related to the Mac OS. As far as I can see, your issues were/are:

* The broken style linking in Macs causing faux bolding/italicising.

* The bold in the OpenType fonts (presumably Gill Sans and Adobe Garamond) is too light for your liking and lighter than the Type 1 versions.

* Excel on the Mac is crashing.

Apart from issue 2 (which I don't see on my PC - OT bolds do match the Type 1 bolds), these are clearly Mac issues. If I've missed something, could you please point it out for us? And if you're seeing something new, could you please give details on that?
