Hello all.

I'm thinking of getting a Mac, I already have a PC running Windows XP.

My question is, if in future I want to add to collection of fonts, which variety can I install on both Mac and PC without paying twice for the font?

Thanks everyone.



Well who'd have thought it?

Macs can handle most font types you care to throw at them: PostScript are obviously the best, but also the new OpenType format and TrueType. Search the web, there's plenty of info out there.

Here's a good starting point: http://developer.apple.com/fonts/

You can't (legally) install typefaces willy-nilly though, check the licence.
