Follow up: I have Quark and InDesign on my PC, and did a test switching back and forth between them to see the Myriad Pro family. InDesign has access to the entire Myriad Pro family, but Quark (which apparently uses the Windows OS font handling) has these that are not available: Myriad Pro Bold SemiExt Myriad Pro Bold SemiExt Italic Myriad Pro Black Myriad Pro Black Condensed Myriad Pro Black Condensed Italic Myriad Pro Black Italic Myriad Pro Black SemiExt Myriad Pro Black SemiExt Italic Myriad Pro SemiExt Myriad Pro SemiExt Italic The only SemiExt family that shows up on the Windows OS font menu is Myriad Pro Light SemiExt, and using the sytle buttons I get: Myriad Pro Light SemiExt Myriad Pro Light SemiExt Italic Myriad Pro SemiBold SemiExt Myriad Pro SemiBold SemiExt Italic There doesn't seem to be a path to the SemiExt fonts listed above or any of the Black fonts. Is there a way for the Windows OS font handler to access the last ten fonts? The application I actually need it in is Pageflex by Bitstream and not Quark. It is only available as a PC application and uses the Windows OS font handler.
