Using Fonts
Many software programs include a Font command that lists the available fonts.
Usually you’ll select the text and apply the font (or include the font as part of a style
definition). See the user’s guide for the program you’re using to find out how to select
fonts for your text.
Buying Fonts
Fonts are included with most software programs and operating systems you
purchase. You can buy additional fonts and install them on your computer, where
they’re stored in your computer’s memory.
You can buy two types of fonts for your computer:
■ TrueType fonts, which are fonts that can be scaled to different sizes and that look
exactly the same on your computer screen and on the printed page.
■ Type 1, or postscript, fonts (if you’re using a type manager).
