photoshop/illustrator font problem

[amaze]

Hi all! :)

Well, the thing is that I'm a greek web designer and I work a lot with greek fonts. The problem is that all the greek fonts I got wont work with Photoshop nor Illustrator and every time I need to write something in greek I go to CorelDraw export it to .eps and then open it again with PS or Illustrator...

In these 2 programs, the only greek fonts that work fine are Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, Courier and generaly all the system fonts... All others work only for Latin characters. Do u know how is this bag fixed??

:puzzled:

Thanks in advance.

yasou re pos pas! hehe

ok the fonts arent working in illustrator and photoshop, what format are these fonts? and do you use a type manager to handle your fonts?

:: you live in greece or elsewhere?

Kalws ton patriwth!

I live in Athens, Greece.

They are a bunch of UB-fonts and CF-fonts as well.
No idea what type manager is... :blush:

no sure dude, a type manager might help the situation to help adobe apps read those fonts.. let me see what i can find. :book:

it might be easier if you can find some true type greek fonts, if there is any.

These UB-fonts are true type greek fonts. :(

dont post them here, send them directly to my email..

ok the only way i can make them work in illustrator is go to type/glyphs and click on the character that i want..

let me try photoshop.

::btw what version of illustrator and photoshop do you have?

CS both

cant get photoshop working either, never had to work with different language fonts before, thought i could jump in and figure it out, sorry re.

we do have some designers from other countries here, hopefully they can help.
