SmoothFont format. These provide a wide range of style and utility. TypeStyler can also convert other fonts to SmoothFont format, but there’s both good news here. The good news is that you have access to hundreds (thousands?) of faces. The bad news is that TypeStyler will not convert Adobe’s locked fonts. We can hardly blame TypeStyler for Adobe’s marketing decisions. Nevertheless, you still have plenty of inexpensive faces to choose from—look into EmDash, Casady & Green, Dubl-Click, Olduvai, T/Maker and many others. You may already own several fonts that will work just fine in TypeStyler. Most public domain fonts are perfectly suitable. In fact, you’ll find a coupon in the TypeStyler box which allows you to order a “Sampler” of ten fonts from five companies, including Altsys, Bitstream, Dubl-Click, The Font Company and Mactography. These fonts have already been converted into SmoothFont format, meaning that you won’t be able to use them in other applications, but the set can be ordered for $89.95—less than ten dollars apiece—quite a bargain.
Back To The Controls
Now that you have an overview of TypeStyler methods, let’s take a closer look at some of the other effects which are possible. TypeStyler’s Attributes window contains 35 predefined shapes and 35 predefined styles, but all can be modified. Shapes that have curved tops and/or  bottoms can be manipulated by dragging 
handles around. The shape variations cover every 
imaginable type of distortion.
A few of the basic shapes are shown here.
