jwhittaker Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 My customer is using DinPro regular and want to use the stylistic set 1 of the @ (at sign). I can select the correct one in the glyphs palette in Indesign CS4 on the MAC. The default keeps coming up in acrobat when exporting using Fusion. I can't find the key command for it so I could type it in Fusion. I've looked and the ASCII code says they are both 0040. I checked the FSI FontShop International, the font company, and no luck with any info. I was going to do a find and replace in a rule, but I don't know what to replace it with. So far this is what I have for my rule: return ReplaceSubstring(Field("Email"), "@", "????????" Does anyone know how to find out what to use for the stylistic Set 1 of an opentype font? Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 FusionPro does not support stylistic sets. ASCII character 0x40 (64 decimal) is the @ symbol, so there's nothing to replace it with. If you can get the stylized character glyph from another font, you could use an <f name=***> tag to access that other font. If you want to send the font to Support, we can take a look at it, and perhaps consider an enhancement in a future release. Please do not post proprietary fonts to this public forum.

jwhittaker Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 Dan Thanks for you input. Sounds like I'll have to try and find another font that's close.I'll attach the font I was having problems with. Thanks again. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhittaker Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Here is my solution for this problem. First I opened the DINPro font in fontographer and copied the glyph for the version of the "@" I wanted. Created a new font and pasted it into the default location, where you would press shift+2, and exported out the font. Converted it to true type font and put it into my system. I then had to create a small variable text box and put in the correct "@" using the new font I just created. Wrote my rule to replace the current "@" and switch it out for the new "@". My rule, where Untitled-Regular is the new font I created (I had to download a demo of fontographer and it wouldn't let me name it): return ReplaceSubstring(Field("Email"),'@', '<span font="Untitled-Regular" pointsize=8>@</span>'); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
