Helvetica Neue

We are avid users of helvetica neue. It is not a standard font on a pc. There seems to be several versions out there of the font. Does anyone know which helvetica neue we have to buy to provide cross platform compatibility.

Sorry, but we can't answer that as there's no way anyone here could know what vendor created your copy of the font.

You'd have to figure out who the vendor/font house is and buy the true type version from the same vendor. Or just use a font converter and convert the one you own to True Type.

Hi Craig!

Many many font houses sell fonts online. You'll want to purchase an OpenType Helvetica Neue version so that you can use the same font file on both Mac and Windows. Have a look at this site for an example <http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/mondosearchresults.htm?st=12&kid=helvetica%20ne ue>.

You will probably have to adjust your documents going forward to use the new version of Helvetica Neue that you purchase but you'll eventually accomplish what you're after.

Hope this helps!
