- Amazing, when I set text in Myriad Pro in #Adobe #InDesign and save a pdf, lines containing ligatures print much darker and are outlined when the pdf is opened with #Illustrator Expensive subscriptions to broken software, hurray.
- Amazing, when I substitute default figures of Myriad Pro in #Adobe #Illustrator with alternate OpenType figures and save a pdf, copying text is broken. Copying text to MS Word, and eps export are also broken. Expensive subscriptions to broken software, hurray.
- Amazing that well hinted TrueType font families render completely miserable in popular Unix systems. Capitals designed at identical heights jump up and down with any of the hinting variables. Only with the following setting it becomes bearable: Tweaks > Fonts > Hinting > None
