Tino,
I apologize for my misspelling. I didn't pay attention to auto-correct before I sent my reply. Again, thank you for your input.

I did check with the font dealer directly and he even sent me the newest font files and I installed those and I still the exact same issue as you! I worked for over an hour with him and he claimed that he never had encountered this problem before and he couldn't help me any further as I had the latest font files. Thank you so much for confirming this for me. I appreciate the information. TVB From: Heiko Haida [mailto:i...@heiko-haida.de] Sent: Monday, January 27, 2014 8:27 PM To: Tammy Van Boening; Framers Bounces; Framers Subject: Re: Font issue in Framemaker 10, Windows 7, 64-bit Hi Tammy, to check your problem I had to buy one font style, I choose the "Breuer Text regular" font. Now, after checking the font info, it is clearly a mistake in the font definition. Although the style name is "Regular", the font weight is set to "medium". If this is a problem, you should contact your font dealer or the maker of the font. Of course the setting could be modified with a font program, but this would be against license agreements, I guess. best regards - Tino H. Haida, Berlin (Germany) Tammy Van Boening: All, I am having a doozy of a time with fonts in Framemaker and I am hoping that if I provide a detailed description of the problem, someone can point me in the right direction. This >>SHOULD<< be Fonts 101, but I give. Here is the summary: · I have purchased four fonts directly from the font maker. The fonts are Breuer Text Regular, Breuer Text Regular Italic, Breuer Text Bold, and Breuer Text Bold Italic. · There are other fonts in this family with "Medium" in their names, such as Breuer Text Regular Medium, Breuer Text Medium Italic, etc. · There are 8 font styles in all in this family, and they are style-linked · I have purchased and installed only the four fonts that I listed in my first bullet. I have not ever installed any of the Medium fonts or any of the other fonts, so style-linking should not be an issue. · After installing these four fonts, I see this in my C:\Windows\Fonts directory - Medium, Medium Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Note that the Regular fonts are actually being renamed automatically to Medium upon installation. I did not do this manually. · When I open the top level Breuer Text font folder, I see four individual detailed font folders - one named Medium, one named Medium Italic, one named Bold and one named Bold Italic. · If I open either of the Medium folders, the file name in the title bar still reads as BreuerText-Regular. otf or BreuerTextItalic-Regular. · When I create a paragraph tag in FM named BodyItalic, I select Breuer Text as the Font Family, and then for the angle, I select Italic, which should just switch the Regular font with the Regular Italic font, but boom. . . the weight is also set to Bold immediately. For the weight characteristic, there is a Regular option, so I try to select that and click Update All, but the angle is immediately reset to Bold and I cannot change it. Anytime I try to set the angle for any paragraph tag that uses the Breuer text to Italic, FM automatically sets the weight to Bold as well. · I opened a Word doc., typed in some text in Breuer text, and then manually applied the Italic character. In Word, the text is only italicized. It is NOT bolded. I have to manually apply the Bold in Word. · If I use just Regular Breuer text in FM, and don't screw with the angle, the weight remains Regular. It does not get bolded. I have tried rebooting, clearing my font cache, rebooting again and I still this issue in Framemaker with this danged Breuer text. I tried uninstalling the Breuer text, clearing my font cache, reinstalling and still the same issue. The Regular text gets loaded and installed with "Medium" in the name in the Fonts directory and in FM., anytime I try to italicize a paragraph tag, it gets bolded as well. This is really screwing up my docs., obviously, as I don't want all italicized text to be bolded. Any and all advice is sincerely appreciated.
