Hi Folks

We bought the Gotham family this morning - but I am damned if I can find a way to install it (OSX)

The files have come through from their site as unrecognised - i.e. it displays that default Mac icon for .exe (black box with green text)

I have tried dropping them into suitcase and font book, tried renaming them with a .otf and .ttf extension, tried installing adobe type manager - and still I'm not sorted.

Anyone had this trouble?

Cheers, Liam

I´d try asking the company for the mac format of that font

I checked the "Download for Mac" option prior to ordering. I have asked them for advice, no response as yet. (doesn't work on windows eever)
