Bridget,
If you create the pdf without embedding the font and the printer installs the font before opening the pdf it'll work.

SCAL, is that edible?



Unzip and install. Then open PowerPoint and you can use the fonts. You could also have clicked the Help link. But I have to admit that doing so a wealth of knowledge will fall upon you, which may cause severe brain damage at untrained brains.

As with ink the meat Last Draft opens fine with both Bitzipper and 7zip. Try the last one. It is free and decompresses most anything.
You may have an Internet connection problem. Weak WiFi connection maybe?

Roger, in all due - as usual - respect, the thousands (make that millions) of teenage girls (and grown-up[?] people's) blogs are not usually using upmarket-feeling fonts. On the contrary, here we see the usual 'Oh it is so cute!' fonts in the best cases and the usual rubbish in most cases. Yes, there are exceptions. And that is exactly why the are exceptions! I didn't link to Nymphont without a reason. Her blog is one of these exceptions.

Even if someone or you would disagree, the worn out and over-use of some font-styles in that market-segment also counts for commercial fonts as the choice is limited and the differences are to the market (the people) hardly noticeable.

Thus, for colicoid to make his/her proposal Nymphont's Champagne & Limousines would be a good starting point. If he/she wins the account then comes the time to have an exclusive created. I am pretty sure that Lauren with her feeling for this type-style could do this very well, and I think for a perfectly acceptable price. At least far by far less than what I and many others would ask.

Edited for typo. kk

Upmarket.

See Taylor, for modern and stylish, fashionable and expensive most point to Geometric SansSerif types, as used by most fashion houses in the top of the bill segment. A common handwriting, imho, does not fit that world.

Nope Menhir.
It has nothing to do with line-spacing. It has to do with how certain programs handle fonts. Some are very strict with the Ascender sand Decenders, some vector based programs ignore them. The 2008 version of Inked God has the Ascenders and Decenders completely wrong. As wrong as can possibly be! Yet, and here is the good news, as from today a new release showed up here at Dafont. This one has the Ascenders and Decenders correctly set - more or less.

You could try the updated version that is here since today. But you may very well still be out of luck, a font with a capital-height that is below the basline and an x-height that is on the baseline and incomplete naming is not - how shall we phrase this without offending someone - very well made!

Edit: check your mail.

mumble ... Shanda, had your first question been "Hello, I am having a challenge. I downloaded the Inked God font with lots of extra scrolly bits. The problem is that anywhere they extend above/below the actual letters they are being cut off. Does anyone know how I can correct for this?" my first answer would have been the same, plus 'check your mail', as at the same time I would have sent you a corrected version. A one minute job.
But you didn't. Instead, as too many on this forum, you exclude the essential info - thus keeping the subject abstract - and make it impossible for us to see how to solve the problem. If you feel offended that is a pity. But we get a bit frustrated about these vague questions ... mumble



... and kind of true ...



@Jaynz
slouis has been carefully hiding this info. Had it not, the problem would have been solved long ago. So why bother?



With any font editor you can correct this in the metrics dialog box.
