  Help with Foreign Text Fonts

  Posted by Jonny Filsinger on November 18, 2007 at 3:29 pm

  We are finishing up a 3 minute video for an ad agency and they now have decided that they want versions in Spanish, Chinese and Vietnamese too. They will furnish the voice over talent. We need to do the rest. Where do you find the fonts, etc. to revise the English version. They want the finished projects on DVD. This is my first time doing this sort of project. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated. I am using FCP Studio 2. Thanks in advance.

  I can not give you much information about how to work in chines with a Mac I think that the chines is widely supported by MacOX. The vietnamien use our alphabet with lot of accents).
  If you have problem working in FC an easy option is to get the text as Ilustrator files. You don’t need to have the fonts to open them, and you can resize them without any loose of quality because they are parametric.
  I have used this system because I work often with Lao text and is not supported in MacOX.

  If you need to put foreign language on screen, cut and paste from a word program into your text generator, all the accents should come over.

  Have a wonderful day.
