    Swis721 BT-Normal Font Needed

    Hello everyone! I recently got a file for a job I need to run and they're using the font titled Swis721 BT-Normal. I'm unable to locate it on the internet, either for pay or free. I've found a few simmilar products, but I want to be sure I get exactly that file. The pay ones are about $50 bucks, so I don't want to purchase unless I have the exact match.

    Anyone of you out there have this font on your machine???

    Thanks!
    Tracey

    Tracey, did you check your X3 disks? I'm not sure what Swis721 BT-Normal looks like but there are some Swis721 fonts on the disk.

    Tracey, it's the same as Helvetica Regular, just a different name. if you don't have that I do have both, I think Swiss came with Corel 5.

    If it's on the Corel CD then GREAT! I normally try to install all features, but I must have missed that option during the installation. As soon as I get home tonight I'll check it out, otherwise, I can probably use that Helvetica as a substitute worst case, thanks again!!!

    I find that if a customer specifies a particular font, it's because they have it on their computer, and use it in word or what ever.. If it's copyright, and not available as a free font, I check the price and inform the customer that if they 'really' want that font, you must pass this cost on to them. At that point, they are usually very receptive to a few instruction on how to locate their font folder, and how to attach the .ttf file to a email and send it to you..You can then use it and delete it when finished.. But, 9 times out of ten, they will simply ask you to find something close..
