Menhir, as many others also this poster takes great care to not to mention the font(s) in question. As a consequence also this question can not be answered properly.


Jul 31, 2011 at 15:39  [reply]  Commercial Use

Most times in a text file that comes with the font. Nowadays it is often incorporated in the font itself (font properties > license/copyright/names). Older fonts often don't have that info as they stem from the days when everybody understood what 'free for personal use' meant and there were no smart discussions of how to interpret that in such a way that it can be used commercially in a sneaky way. But then, those were the times of Bob Dylen. And as he sang, the times they are changing ...

Why don't you simply read the Aldo license tekst? Well, if you did not want to, now you have to.

Free For personal use and Gaia

I make graphics on for people on gaiaonline. So can I make graphics for people and use free for personal use only fonts on the graphics?

No, not by definition. Using fonts to make graphics for others is not the same as using fonts to make graphics for yourself. If what you make for others is then used by those for commercial purposes (even a personal website with Google or so ads on it) it is not personal use anymore. Even if you do not charge for your work. Understand?



Open a copy of the sans font you want to change. Goto format naming and change the name and so of the font. Save that copy under a new name (suggestion, totally mixed-up.ttf ). Open the serif font which numbers you want to use. Right click on 1 and copy. In your new totally mixed-up font right click on 1 and paste. 2 through 0 same thing.
Now your new totally mixed-up font has sans letters and serif numbers. Save. Goto format setting metrics and check the cap height of the font. Close settings. Double click 1, Edit select all. In the Transform toolbar (View Toolbars Transform) click Size. Validate Lock Aspect Ratio. Set the height at the capital height of the font and apply. Same for 2 through 0. Save.
Bingo!

Note: Don't use the Arial but a Public Domain sans that has a GNU General Public License like the Liberation Sans and for the serif you can use the Liberation Serif.

Makes no difference Claude, restricted license embedding no embedding allowed. Default Fontographer setting. So if the author doesn't specifically chooses the embedding settings that is the result. There are only two ways out, permanently install the font on any machine that needs to read the pdf or change the embedding rights in the font before saving the pdf with the font embedded.

Edit kk
By the way, Claude, the otf's are not valid font files.

The answer is implied in your question. The font does not permit embedding. So, instead of working with the font temporarily installed you, and anyone who needs/wants to read your pdf, needs to have the font permanently installed on his/her machine before opening the file.

It was not a border but a vertical banner. Image(s) plus text.

Jul 24, 2011 at 13:47  [reply]  ARIAN Font

But then you don't need the Arian. Any Eurostile/Microgramma/Microsquare/Microstyle/Microstile/etc. or lookalike will do.


Jul 24, 2011 at 10:52  [reply]  ARIAN Font

Jaynz, Dave never asked for a free Arian download. Asked for something (very) similar be it for free. Little wrong with that question imho.

Dave, the Arian is in fact the Eurostile with an Arabic character set added. And, yes, filthy expensive per face. There is another Eurostile lookalike with an Arabic character set, the Aban. Also expensive at $95 per face.
I have not found any Eurostyle based font with Arabic character set. In fact an Arabic SansSerif seems to be a rarity as Latin and Arabic scripts have fundamentally different approaches to typefaces.
I found one though, an old WSI Arabic script the Arabic Sans

Not very close but maybe it will do.

Wrong forum fenix. Goto a PS or PSP forum there they'll happily help you.



You don't have a problem ... you are experiencing the magic of open type. Nah ... a bit of it.

As Nike is not a foundry or a designer there is no such thing as a Nike font. But, yes, there are type designs used by Nike.


Jul 20, 2011 at 15:34  [reply]  Custom Font Design

Both grayscale and black&white png, image height per character 800px. Be aware, due to the enormous amount of contours per glyph a font like this, even with figures only, will become a mega-monster. You will be much better of with vectors.
