    Font not Found

    Had some work completed for me on an audio player.

    The did it on a mac and used a Futura condensed font.

    When I try and edit it it comes up with font not found.

    I tried replacing it with a different font but it looks terrible.

    How do I import futura condensed and where do I get it from.

    Thanks for your help

    download the font at:
    http://www.acidfonts.com/ffonts21.htm

    and install it.

    instal notes:

    go to config screen and click fonts.

    go to file ->add new font and search in the directory you just downloaded the font to.

    thats all i guess

    edit: if this doesn't work try to find a suitable substitute font.

    keep in mind that some fonts on the mac are not on the pc (for example futura and helvetica)

    it might be hard to find those on internet for free.

    Can anybody suggest a perfect substitute that will fit in no change in size and that looks similar?

    Thanks

    im not an expert but i would say arial looks like it.

    im not sure if its the same size.. but its worth a try.

    (btw.. arial works on mac and pc...)

    I've currently substituted it for arial narrow but it is 2 points bigger and it is causing me so much grief.

    Thanks anyway
