Using Printer Fonts

Dec 10, 2012 8:43 AM

I'm using ID 3 - PC - XP -- HP 5000 Laser Printer --  How can I use fonts from the printer? The Helvetica and CG Omega and Antique Olive I'd like to use.

    You cannot directly use the printer-resident fonts! The only way you can use such fonts is if Hewlett-Packard also provided such fonts as installable fonts for your computer. If you have those fonts and install them, they will appear in the font list of InDesign (and all other applications on your system). Otherwise, the fonts are inaccessible.
