Adobe Garamond Pro is the updated OTF version of the original Postscript Type 1 that existed for years, sold by (back in the day) by Adobe, with up to 6 variants, but these days most easily available as a Typekit-installed font through your CC Subscription.

OR installed as part of an Apple iWorks install on your previous computer (which had 4 variants)Ģ. usually with just 3 variants, Regular, Italic, and Bold (No Bold Italic). The Garamond you are using in Word is the Truetype version that Microsoft (and earlier iMac models) installed. Any positive and helpful suggestions most welcome. Wondering if I should cut my losses and change typefaces and fonts available on the Apple list (iMac 2020), in MS Word and in InDesign? Baskerville might be a better bet but are there other typefaces used by Apple, MS Word and in InDesign that would suit a non-fiction book that will be printed and perhaps go on the web? Have wasted money on tryiong to get this issue sorted out in quite a few attempts. Garamond in MS Word for Mac and AGP in InDesign are not the same as anyone with a similar probelm would know. However I don't know if they can be added to the Apple list of available fonts on my iMac or to MS Word 365 for Mac (subscription). The six AGP fonts are activated according to Adobe. I downloaded the AGP fonts again this morning so they should be definitely available in my version of InDesign. However, I had downloaded the Adobe Garamond Pro fonts recently when I created some of my own files in InDesign. I do have a PDF version of the draft layout but there are many errors in it also and the version of PDF I have does not support Adobe Garamond Pro.

(When I open the file in InDesign the prgram says there are more than 2,460 errors in the file). I know that there is a new InDesign share facility but the designer preferred to use Dropbox for sending the InDesign file verson of part of the book. Latest layout work created on a Mac but when an InDesign file of part of the book was sent via Dropbox this morning, message comes up that I don't have Adobe Garamond Pro fonts on my computer (read iMac 2020 here). Have had no end of trouble because some design work created on PCs and perhaps elements of MS Word incompatible. Conversion from MS Word to InDesign has created problems as Adobe uses Garamond Pro fonts.

Now using MS Word 365 for Mac (subscription). Text originally created in Garamond in Word on an iMac and updated over about five or six years. Have a new iMac 2020, an older iMac (late 2015) and and an MacBook Pro. Hi All, Have had a draft book on the go for years.
