Right now I am downloading that program from adobe, and in the meantime, can anyone please tell me how to know if a particular font is Type 1 font ? Is there any characteristic, like filename or filedate or filesize ? I really have no idea what I have bought, just that my WinME computer wouldn't even recognize it. Thanks again !
