Problems with Playbill font
« on: March 20, 2012, 10:44:09 AM »
Every version I have tried to download displays blank. I have tried from three of four different sources. Anyone have clue? Does it work for you?

Okay, I did just find RS Playbill, which is actually even closer to what I want (more "seriphy"), and the file does seem fine, but I still want to know what is up with all of the other Playbills I tried.

That's probably it. A real file but not one that opens for me.
I have to go back and see if perhaps they gave me a clue (that I missed) that it was indeed for Mac.

However, as I mentioned, the other one I did find and that opened is a better fit.
