    there is only for mac?

  2. Graham Smith says:

    Fabio : It’s a Postscript font, so in theory should work fine on both Mac and PC.

  3. Benjamin says:

    Doesn’t appear to work for me, on PC

    Any ideas? When I unzip, the osx folder has the most data, but the .afm file doesn’t work in my font directory

    Cracking tyeface, I would love to get it working/get hold of a compatible copy =]

  4. Angie Bowen says:

    Great font! Unfortunately it doesn’t have a PFM file so it won’t work on Vista. I’ll definitely be installing it on my mac though! :D

  5. Graham Smith says:

    Oh right, those pesky ‘PFM’ files. Drat.

    I would suggest contacting the author ‘Meredith Mandel’ direct, there is a link in the post with the email.

    I am sure if you show some interest in the font and the website, ‘League of Moveable Type’, they will oblige with a PC version.

    May just be a oversight.

  6. Benjamin says:

    Meredith contacted regarding the typeface and has most kindly updated the file to a TrueType font!

    :D great news all round

    Now go download people of Windows

  7. Thanx Graham. Cool Typeface!
