Paevo, are you saying Myriad is available to your other apps but not FW?

I have the whole Myriad Pro set showing up just fine in FWCS3

The font may be included with your CS3 suite as an extra if you don't find
that you have it loaded.

Can also buy it: at www.myfonts.com or

Why all the question marks and exclamation marks? There are plenty of free
fonts, but many you have to pay for and you can pay substantially more than
£35 as well.

There is a limit to how many fonts FWs can handle ( Iforget the figure) the
only way for it not to show is if you have exceeded that limit or it has
been corrupted some how.

Such as http://www.fountain.nu/catalogue/incognito.asp, at $179. I have yet to
be able to justify buying this one. But I want it. (Is it still avarice if you
want something you have to pay for?)

Unless they're new or very special, most professional type faces are priced
between $20 and $50.

Why? Do you expect them to be free? Are font designers not expected to earn
a living?

PJR, it's a common font; might as well omit Times New Roman in the latest version of MS Word...

Common does not equal free, unfortunately. And personally for web use I
couldn't care less it they did omit Times New Roman, I just doesn't work on
the web. IMO,but I take your point :-)

Perhaps Paevo you should rent the move "Helvetica". It's about the font
obviously, but provides some insight into the significance of the typeface,
it's history, and it's cultural impact.

Also, did you know that the font Apple uses for the iPod is based off of
Myriad?
