I am assuming Helvetica Condensed Medium, type 1, from Adobe would be the same as "Helvetica Med. Realize you'll pay $180 for something Adobe feels should die, so don't expect great support. Type 1 fonts have been deprecated by Adobe. I know there are several questions here, but I'm expecting that the right answers to the important ones will obviate some of the lesser ones. Yeah, did I mention they want this operational for tomorrow? DĪny advice toward meeting that goal would be sincerely appreciated. But now is the time to "do the best we can", not the time to argue that point. more canonical, less expensive, simpler, or all of the above), I would like to hear about it.Īfter all this, I have my doubts that the original specification is even precisely valid. Do they even exist?Īm I even going about this the right way? I wound up at the Adobe site first because of their apparent dominance of search results, but if there is a better alternative (i.e. So, I think to be safest I need TTF versions of these fonts. to top it all off, I am not even certain our label printer (Zebra Z4M) is compatible with any non-TrueType fonts, other than those provided by the manufacturer, and they do not appear to offer the fonts we require. I thought I might have better results on the Linotype site but the issues (other than the bundling) are basically the same - they don't appear to sell the exact specific font, and I'm not exactly sure what "format" I'll be getting. Assuming I could find the specific fonts I want, is there no way to buy individual fonts?
(Not clearly to me, at least.) Furthermore, the ones that seem closest are all bundled into packs of multiple fonts. When I attempt to browse fonts in the Adobe store alphabetically, I also do not see any fonts that clearly correspond to Helv. Is there another "common" name for these fonts? (No "add to cart" button, etc.) And, when I attempt to search the Adobe site using their built-in search, I don't see any results that directly correspond to "Medium Condensed". When I do a web search for "Helvetica Condensed Medium", I see one identical result in the Adobe store and a bunch of references to "Neue 67" variant of Helvetica, which, as I understand, is not identical.īut when I view that Adobe link, there is no apparent way to actually purchase that font.
The client has very specific requirements, calling for Helvetica Medium Condensed and Helvetica Bold Condensed ( you can see the document here, Section 5).
I am working on a shipping label that is incidental to a database system I am responsible for supporting.
