Okay.this was way long.hope it helps, though. Even having something like a MacMini on hand to work around some of the cross-platform issues might not be a bad idea. If you're a service provider or printshop and looking at being able to take in all sorts of jobs with all sorts of configurations, you'll probably need to invest in purchasing a lot of fonts.like Adobe's OpenType library. Many of the issues that used to be problematic when using TrueType fonts have fallen by the wayside. OpenType is going to be your best bet to cut down on reflow issues.but TrueType is much more prevalent.

The best bet is to set some sort of "font shortlist" you'd like the clients (or contributors) to use. Adobe InDesign is a desktop publishing tool for professional and large-scale publishers. OpenType fonts are a cross-platform format.ĭon't forget that, technically and legally, you must own the same fonts on your end and can't share fonts with your clients, anyway. Macs can't read Windows Type 1 fonts without being converted to Mac format. Speed up your workflow by using these handy Adobe InDesign shortcuts for Windows and Mac. Mac is ideal because it can read any font format.
