    Default PFM & PFB type fonts / paths collect for output issues...

    Hiya

    I used a font called "ITC Officina Sans Book" for a magazine advert. The
    magazine will be printed in 2 languages and they (magazine humans) are
    responsible for the translations. So they need the open FH file to make
    alterations.

    My problem is that when I "collect for output", FH places PFB and PFM type
    fonts in the output directory. I remember previously another printhouse had
    problems installing these fonts. The fonts are from the Adobe Font Folio
    collection and we use Adobe Type Manager Deluxe 4.1 to manage them.

    Below are the fonts that FH outputs.

    OWB_____.PFB - 32k
    OWB_____.PFM - 2k
    OWBK____.PFB - 31k
    OWBK____.PFM - 2k
    OWWI____.PFB - 33k
    OWWI____.PFM - 2k

    A simple solution would be to convert the fonts to paths, but then they
    cannot make alterations. Another would be to use a different font, but we
    like this one and the client had already approved.

    Any idea how to supply them with the font so its usable?

    Thanks in advance :>
