I checked fonts in my computer after reading your article this morning. I didn't find the font you want. And I do noticed that all the fonts which I am using in photoshop and illustrator are TTF format!

By accident, I found some fonts have extension pfb, which are the fonts
you mentioned, placed under Acrobat's folder. I believe they come along with the program. The names of the fonts are so weird that I could't figure out what it would look like from their names. For example, ei_____.pfb. (All of them have a strange underscol)

From your post, I think TTF is developed by Microsoft while PFB was developed by Adobe. Is that right? Should I update TTF fonts to PFB for a better performance in Adobe applications? OR, can I load and use both TTF or PFB font at the same time in Adobe applications?Did you find a website for downloading PFB fonts?

Your reply will be really appreciated.

Thanks.

          • pfb和pfm字体单独使用的话，基本上都是要钱的，但是如果你能够找到Adobe Type Manager这种软件的话，他里面带有一些基本的这种字体，一般来说，安装了之后，对付普通的英文pdf文件的字体是没问题了！ -lester(黑龙); 2002-10-10 {2696} (#791256@0)

            photoshop and illustrator一般来说是可以使用windows系统的自带的ttf自体的，但是如果遇到我这种情况，别人提供给你的表格就是使用的adobe自带的字体的话，你有希望将表格不会因为你使用字体的原因而造成一些误解，这个时候，你只有想办法搞到属于adobe自己的字体了。

            adobe使用的这种postscript字体一般有两个文件构成，1、后缀为pfm的Font Metrics Files例如：***.PFM，2、另一个为后缀为pfb的Font Outline File例如：***.PFB，这两个文件结合起来，才能构成一个我要的那种字体；也就是说，我告诉大家的字体名字实际上是包含在另外一个文件里面的（这是我昨天的理解错误，让大家那么赵，一般是找不到的），比如你说的ei_____.pfb，当你在Type Manager里面查看他的时候，你才能发现，真正得外名称是什么，当然，有些名字内外一致，就是很奇怪的。

            >From your post, I think TTF is developed by Microsoft while PFB was >developed by Adobe.

            You are right !

            >Should I update TTF fonts to PFB for a better performance in Adobe >applications?
            pfb字体，不一定就比微软的TTF强，两者没有太强的可比性，所以，你不用担心这个问题，只不过就是说pfb是adobe公司专用的而已。

            > OR, can I load and use both TTF or PFB font at the same time in Adobe >applications?
            可以，据我现在所知，有两种办法，一是找到一个Type Manager，安装后，它会提示你，它将在系统盘的根目录建立一个叫PSFONTS的目录，而且，会安装一些pfb&pfm字体进去，这样一来，你所有的adobe产品，便能通过这个字体管理器，都来使用在他目录下的字体了。也就是说，它不会像普通的安装字体一样，将字体安装到windows系统中去，别的软件也使用不了。

            >Did you find a website for downloading PFB fonts?
            没有，我是通过将正版安装软件下的相关目录copy到我的机器上来实现的这个功能的，因为这边的版权问题，别人是不愿意将软件借给我装的。幸好，这个软件和字体copy后都能正常使用，所以就解决了。

            如果你只是希望在illustrator中使用该字体，你只需要把字体copy到illustrator下的一个fonts目录中即可，如果你向所有的adobe软件都能使用该字体，而且你也能看该种字体的samples，你就需要Type Manager软件了！

            我现在手头有16M的字体，外加Type Manager4.0，都是copy出来的，不需要，也不能安装，但是copy到相应的目录下，可正常使用。如果你的确有需要的话，我可以给你！如果你有ftp我可以传给你，如果没有，我们用msn也行，软件很小，只有几百K，主要是16M的字体。
