Chicago, Geneva, Monaco, and New York are currently available in TrueType
versions. The other classic fonts are still only available in bitmapped versions.
Why do I sometimes get Geneva or Courier in my printed documents when I have
specified other fonts?
Geneva sometimes appears when you’re trying to use a TrueType font but
don’t have enough memory for scaling to operate properly.
Substitute fonts can also appear in a document composed on one computer that
has a particular set of fonts but printed on another Macintosh that doesn’t have
those fonts.
Why does a document written entirely in Times look different on different Mac OS
computers?
Times, an extremely popular font, is manufactured and sold by more than one
company. Such fonts usually have small differences, even though they have
the same name. For example, the Times font manufactured by Adobe Systems
Incorporated has different letterspacing than does the Times font from Apple
Computer, Inc.
What is font substitution?
Font Substitution, which isn’t available for your Color StyleWriter 6500
printer, is an option in the Page Setup dialog box for certain PostScript
printers. When font substitution is turned on, these printers will use their built-
in equivalents for three bitmapped fonts (Times for New York, Helvetica for
Geneva, and Courier for Monaco).
