I am working as technical and layout advisor to a PRINT product (weird

Someone please, give me a clue

There are free fonts available, but as someone who
Buy Adobe PS Fonts. There's another big house but can't remember the
name.
Once you've purchased whichever fonts it is you want ... Those are yours
to use on any publication printed, made from the company who purchased
the fonts, no royalty fees.
And he's dead right about PostScript. Sometimes
Kevin,
the question we have is about the royalty for using the fonts on the

What is the scoop with that?
Very simply, there isn't a royalty. Once you buy them, you can use them in
any number of publications. Ready for a brain dump?
The license agreements from the font vendors

Great point. More and more printers are accepting PDF as a final format.
Some even prefer it. Whether it strictly violates the license agreements

or be condescending. I'm just sharing years of
