"Styled" fonts_revisited

frailer · June 06, 2008, 03:20:28 AM

Have done the odd Q6.52 job lately from our in-house. I'm sure in the past the dreaded styled fonts in Q didn't work; or double worked...ugly super italics.
Now, they seem to work OK. Just another one of those little Quack mysteries that'll never be answered, I guess.

Had them loaded Temporarily in Fusion, in this inst. If there's one thing that Adobe did right, it was to not allow those cursed things.
All for their own reasons, I'm sure, but still.... :undecided:

I don't recall if Quark has the text angle setting like Indy does...now that could create some really cool text effects!

I was always quite fond of the shadow feature. Very elegant.

Ummmm, uh, No, I mean - Yes! he is single. We know Batman had a secret dual/identity, Bruce Wayne... so if Bruce is married, is Batman single? Just wondering.
