Gotham-Book and Gotham-Light fonts

Hi, I just installed the latest iWork and when I try to open a PowerPoint file with Keynote I get an error message saying that I dont have Gothem-Book or Gotham-Light fonts installed and need to quit and install them. The file will open but does anyone know where or how to get these? I can't find them in anything I have.

Would be grateful for any suggestions.

these fonts were probably used during the creation of the Powerpoint presentation.

They may be a part of the Windows operating system, or included with Office. (they are not on my system, so they are not part of the Office trial)

The gotham series appears to be cose to $500, so I'm afraid you won't find anyplace to get it for free.

No problem.

I have seen some fonts over at House Industries which are similar. Especially the Chalet family.

Once you start pricing fonts, you come to realize the value of OSX and iWork, which come with so many professional fonts.

Thanks for the help Gerry.

I did some searching and found them a little cheaper but still pretty expesive for just some fonts. I think I can live without them.

Cheers,

Todd
