Article: Naming typeface families

Allan Murray

You may find my article useful:

Naming typeface families on a PC
http://cr8software.net/article001.html

also useful for Mac users who are converting fonts for use on a PC.

Any feedback welcome.

It's fine as far as it goes, but it only covers name IDs 1, 2 and 4, and the Windows platform versions of those strings, and only for TrueType.

Cheers,

T
