I buy some of my fonts from Myfonts. They're not always available in OTF format, so what's the best format to purchase? I guess Win/Mac Type1 is probably not a good idea. But is there any real difference between Mac TT and Win TT? I'm usng a Mac (OS X 10.4), but don't rule out needing to use fonts on Windows (within licence restrictions, naturally). So will a Mac TT work on Windows, et vice versa?
