Is there a list of fonts that will be included with Creative Suite 3 (Design Standard and Design Premium)? I'm getting a type order together and don't want to order anything I'll be getting with CS3...

There's a quick and dirty version of the list here: <http://blogs.adobe.com/typblography/2007/04/cs3_bundled_fon.html> A more nicely formatted version on the regular Adobe.com pages will be up soon. Regards, T

Thomas, Much appreciated. The question then comes up (for those of us who prefer to manage which fonts are installed and where), are custom font installations possible? Or do we have to ferret them out after installation? Thanks. Neil

I noticed that CS3 puts the fonts in Library/Fonts on the Mac. CS2 placed he fonts in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts. What gives? Now I have duplicate fonts in two locations. Personally, I'd rather have them in Library/Fonts. But, some fonts from CS2 were not installed in Library/Fonts. I assume they are for Acrbat PDF use and Adobe must have chosen to leave them in Adobe's folder. Should I remove the duplicates? I assume since they are the same, there's no harm in having two...still.

Bob, To avoid font conflicts and anomalies, you should not have more than one installation of a font activated. I'll leave the other part of your question to Thomas. Neil

Yes, I'd get rid of the duplicate fonts in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts. This was a difficult decision, as it will cause some near-term hassle for the next few years. But we are pretty sure putting our fonts in the standard locations is the right move for the long term. Regards, T

Thomas, By not keeping fonts in the "traditional" Adobe font folder, how will that affect how we access and use the fonts? Was application code rewritten with this "move" in mind? I also see this as being a frequent topic in the future -- will there be an FAQ on this? Neil

A related item: I notice that the new fonts give me permission to Read Only, not to Read and Write as with the previous fonts. Thus, I cannot apply a color label to the font on the Mac. Sigh! (I often will select all fonts and give them a color before installing software as a way to quickly see what new fonts were installed (okay, I can view by date, too; but, still...)

Neil: No, it usually matters little to our core font engine. In fact, the only bug I know of related to where fonts are installed was a problem with fonts installed in the Adobe-specific folder.... T

So, then, I'll just continue organizing my fonts as I have for years: in font folders on my drive that I have control over using third-party font management, rather than in the Adobe-specific folder. Neil

Thomas I am curious about the ttf fonts in the web authoring section on your blog. These are not Adobe fonts, are they? Where can we get a look at them?

We acquired them from the designer, who has all sorts of info about his versions of them at <http://www.miniml.com/> Cheers, T

This information is held on the fireworks readme file in CS3: "The installation disk contains �miniml� fonts in the Goodies/Fonts folder." Mine does not contain this folder. How do I get the fonts?

There's been a very unfortunate error, and the "suite" configurations are missing the "miniml" fonts, even though they are included with the individual products (certainly with Flash CS3, and I believe with Fireworks CS3 as well). Adobe people are working out the best way to solve the problem now, and I'll post something as soon as I have more details. On behalf of Adobe, my sincerest apologies for the omission. Regards, T

Thomas, To my way of thinking -- and in light of having received the first CS3 patches today -- the easiest, most equitable way to do this could be in a patch-update. For those who hold a legitimate license and product registration, this becomes a no-brainer. Neil

That was one of our first thoughts as well - we'll see if it is feasible. Regards, T
