Hello:
I have a few basic questions that I'm hopeful one or more of you experienced Illustrators can help me with. I am slowly working my way through Lynda.com tutorials re: Illustrator and I think my question exceeds my tutorial progress ... Here is my scenario:
I'm creating a business card;
The logo for the business card is simply the letter "M," old English style (this is the exact "M" I need -- http://www.fontspace.com/dieter-steffmann/anglicantext?text=M&fontsize =80&foreground=000000&background=FFFFFF);
I have found the style of "M" I need on fontspace.com (by the way, if I found the "M' that I need elsewhere I have no aversion to paying for it. This font stuff is tricky and I'd rather pay than lose time with the wrong stuff) (I don't know anything about fontspace, just that it has the "M" I need);
The fontspace "M" is a True Type font.
Now, what I need is to get the "M" into illustrator because the printing company (moo business cards) needs my design in vector form.
Am I thinking correctly that downloading the font, installing it (OSX), I can then get into Illustrator as a vector image?
Or am I totally off base?
Again, thanks for the benefit of your experience.
