hi Welz

LateralTerminal

@WELZ I was asking if anyone else here thought there was a bug in Illustrator concerning the link provided. I think it's pretty obvious it's a bug but I wanted some other opinions.
https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/102270/how-to-determine-correct-font-name-between-osx-and-windows-with-adobe-find-font

@LateralTerminal but you're looking for "the best workaround", meaning you want a way to figure out what font it is (so that you can correct it), without any previous knowledge to what it may be?

@LateralTerminal i dont think its a bug in illustrator its a difference in operating system setvices

2:07 PM

bug or not bug?

@joojaa bg r nt bg*

Lets do a thought experiment: Imagine that you rent a flat in Paris and in New york For some miraculous coincidence your landlord happens to be the same person.

So the question is is it the fault of your landlord that your washingmachine does not work in both countries because europe and usa uses different electricity standard

@joojaa wouldn't there be 2 (I wouldn't shlep a machine like that around the world)

@joojaa I asked here first but nobody replied so I just determined it was a bug, reported it to Adobe, and added that to my question.

It's definitely a bug, confirmed by someone else in the comments too. It's a bug because it should consistently say it needs the same font in both operating systems. It shouldn't say the missing font is something totally different just because you are using windows instead of mac. This is a foolish oversight by Adobe.

@WELZ I edited the question after asking here to say looking for the best work around because I decided it was a bug when nobody was replying to me in this chat.

Hey Darth, I was just reading about you...

how so?

In the bookmarks of this room.

gotcha, hope you enjoyed it

It is in fact amusing... and confusing lol

2:42 PM

how so confusing?

I can't figure out what started the whole thing, I really don't get it.

started what? sorry not following

oh just check the room's convos

3:39 PM

eekk, lol

3:58 PM

are all bookmarks public or someone can create their own private bookmarks?

public i think

I don't think you can make a private one

no you cant

just tested it

you can have a private chat but then its really not private because any mod can read it, also staff can read anything they want

@DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ wait, who's the dictator behind all of this?

the man, the power, the staff... of SE

@WELZ This guy.

even when you delete a comment, it technically still exists.. same can be said about answers and questions.

10k+ can see deleted posts (not sure abt comments though)

@Wrzlprmft yep the MAIN MAN, the big MAN, the bigshot, the guy who says to jump, lol

comments are mod and higher view

So I assume the best way to keep track of something from a convo in a private way would be to just hold on to the permalink?

yes, you could user evernote, its free

or bookmark it in your browser

4:07 PM

Well, its 2 permalinks, point A, B

@DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ Good idea! I use it sometimes but I'm a big fan of Diigo also

never heard of that

it's a bit more bookmark oriented but they have outlines also where you can keep notes

I use google keep lol

it'S really a bookmark organizer where you can annotate, tag and share your bookmarks

4:13 PM

@WELZ google already tracks everything you do, why does a browser need so much RAM to run... unless they are also recording you, too

@WELZ I love Google's stuff but I'm wary of adopting their products too eagerly, lest they kill them like they did with Reader back in the day

I knew I would regret saying that

lol

I cringe when writing a question for SO
