Title: Fonts Issue - PC to iMac
Post by: Wiltshiresaint on June 04, 2014, 10:49:06 AM
I've been successfully using Scribus for some time on a PC, but recently I bought an iMac to replace it.  However, I've found that when I open Scribus files originated on the PC the font I've been using isn't available on the Mac. 

Is there a quick and easy way and hopefully inexpensive way to source the font and when I do, how do I install it so that it's available when I'm using Scribus on my iMac?  Simply changing the font isn't an option I want to take because I'd like it to remain consistent across all the documents I've created.

hi wiltshire...

there's no technical problem to keep the fonts, but it might be a legal one... (i don't know your license terms for the fonts.)
if you don't find the font files in your wondows file system, save your project with 'file' → 'collect for output' – scribus will find the files...
