Verdana Font

[David Rowland]

huh? Verdana is a typical windows font, most commonly used for designing web pages. In fact, this webpage is made up in Verdana (if it is on your harddrive, if not a substitue is used)

Yes, Verdana is bundled with just about every Microsoft Product.

I googled and found this link http://simplythebest.net/fonts/fonts/verdana.html

Hi

Thanks for such a quick response, I have got Verdana as a True Type Font, but unfortunately I cannot use that type of font in my software as I think it needs to be a gsf. format!!

I have been trying different options and I have found that I can import the written text from CorelDraw into Omega but that is going to be very time-consuming as I will have to use this font on a daily basis now!!!

So if anyone knows of how to get hold of this font in a gsf format I would very much appreciate it.

I have tried searching the net but nothing so far!

Cheers

Are you sure you can’t use ttf fonts in Omega? That would surely make Omega a unique piece of software in today’s environment.

try googling convert ttf to gsf

This is one link that came up http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ seems to be a converter that may do the trick.

Hi

Thanks to this forum – I have managed to crack the problem!!!

You were right in saying that there was a converter locked away in Omega!

Don’t I feel an idiot now!!! 😳

Thanks for all the responses.

I am confused here.. why an earth cant Omega use standard fonts?
I always thought Gerber programs was okay.

[Peter Shaw]

No. That’s what Gerber told you. !!
