Question: The package says there are 43 fonts included, but I only count 35. Where are the other 8 fonts?
Answer: There aren't any missing fonts. The Apple Font Pack contains 43 TrueType fonts, even though only 35 font icons are on the Font Pack disks.
To conserve hard disk space, 8 of the fonts don't have files and icons. The system software generates these fonts using other fonts in the same family. The 8 fonts have designs that allow the system to produce them with good typographic quality results. The 8 fonts that have no font icons are:
Ñ N Helvetica Narrow Italic (from Helvetica Narrow)
Ñ N Helvetica Narrow Bold Italic (from Helvetica Narrow Bold)

Question: All I get is Courier when printing.
Answer: Turn on "Unlimited Downloadable Fonts" in the Page Setup Options dialog.
Question: I just installed the Font Pack. Why is my printer so slow now?
Answer: Slower printing results when documents have several typefaces, and because TrueType fonts print at the highest possible resolution your printer allows.
Question: How do I make the special characters and the strike over characters with the Zeal font?
Answer: You can use the Key Caps desk accessory to view them. Or, refer to page 23 of the "Getting Started with Type" manual that came with your Font Pack.
