Hey. I'm looking for the Skia Bold font face as the newspaper uses it. However, I can't seem to find it on any of the computers they are using with Mac OS 9 and none of the font sites appear to have it. The regular is included in OS X, but not the bold one. If anyone knows where to get it (commercial or free font), please let me know.

Skia

Skia is a stylish sans serif face by Matthew Carter. It was built as a showcase for Apple?s QuickDraw GX technology, and as such has variable weight and width axes. Like a multiple master font, users with the correct software (try SimpleText Pro in MacOS 9) can fine-tune weight and width using sliders in their applications. The font includes old-style numerals, inferior and superior numbers and letters, fractions, and ligatures, demonstrating the richness of character set that such fonts can contain. GX fonts are now correctly termed AAT fonts.

There you go, if you have the right tools you can make it look bold

Interesting. Would be nice if I could find that tool for OS X, but I'll still try to see if I can bug the newspaper staff to change that text to the regular interface. This is so they wouldn't have to worry about looking for the font if they have to upgrade to OS X and use Adobe CS2.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
    • I hate Slack, but Teams is much worse - maybe they've already optimized it, but it was a huge slog the last time I've checked about half a year ago. I miss my Skype.
