I suspect that open type support will happen in all versions in CS3.

Petitioning Microsoft is a better idea. (Not that there is a pressing need for OpenType support in Publisher, but it would be nice in Word and PowerPoint.

>^D

i’m sure CS3 will have OT support too, but will it be unified? will it work the same way across the full suite of applications? that’s what i would like to see.

DONE! Now let’s see if they really do anything about it.

I would suspect so on the old Adobe ones. I’m not so sure on the ones picked up from Macromedia, like Flash and Dreamweaver. It might be too much to hope that they have completely integrated those programs.

Of course this is just a guess.

I expected so as well, but it turns out different programs handle things differently. if you put a ‘hlig’ feature in your font, InDesign will apply this when you activate discretionary ligatures, Photoshop won’t. Same story with the ‘cswh’ feature and applying swash. Another thing, InDesign will link alternate glyphs to the reference glyph in the glyph palette without an ‘aalt’ feature, Illustrator won’t. It’s these types of things that i hope are cleared up in the near future.

Maybe try Kevin Goldsmith’s Blog ( computer scientist — core technologies, Adobe):

We hear you and we’re working on things, as you speak :^)

(Now allow me to get back to the polytonic Greek conundrum I have in hand.)
