Hi guys, pleased to have finally found this forum as I'm having a few problems converting Mac PostScript to Windows anything. I've accomplished this a short while ago with a few different Mac PS fonts that have converted to the same PC computer without any problems, just the normal installation dialogue boxes when installing on the PC, however the conversions worked.
Now though when trying with 'Interstate' PostScript family it doesn't work. The procedure I'm taking is with the following settings:
Codepage = Default
MSCharSet = ANSI
Format = Win Type 1
I then ZIP archive the fonts and open on the PC. Does anyone see any glaring issues with my conversion workflow?

Many thanks,
Christian

Sorry forgot to add that what I believe are the 'resource forks' (could be wrong here) are missing, as the PC doesn't recognise the converted fonts. This includes when converting to Win Type 1, Win TrueType/OpenType TT and OpenType PS.

Cheers,
Christian

Is it TrT3 for Windows?
The workflow is OK. If it were the problem with resources you would not get the result fonts.
You may send me the source and dest fonts by e-mail and I'll take a look.
