The question wether you can use the fonts with other programs than Adobe Reader was asked a few times in different lists and the only useful answer i found is the following: http://www.typeforum.de/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&thold=-1&mode=flat&order=0&sid=259 Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

The question was if it's possible to install the fonts (Minion, Myriad etc.) in the windows font directory and use them with other programs than Adobe Reader (e.g. MS Office) and the answer from Adobe was: “It's no problem to use the fonts with other programs”.
