Sue,

Akzidenz Grotesk as a font goes back to the turn of the previous century and is a Helvetica forerunner. It is a Berthold foundry font, available for purchase from <http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/berthold/akzidenz-grotesk-bq/regular/opentype-ps/329304>

Note that your client cannot legally just give you a copy of the font for installation on your computers, as it is protected intellectual property, much as InDesign is.

Yes, it is OpenType format, compatible with your Adobe applications on both Macs and Windows machines.

Neil
