inad, are you using suitcase or font explorer? Try repairing the font. Or remove it completely and then reinstall it.
I thought Windows TT because they can bugger macs sometimes – of course there wouldn't be swash-alternates in that case.
I'll stop talking now...- suitcase... and thanks Ill try repairing it.imnotadesigner

Nebulae - there are 5 different weights

Start going through your script fonts – maybe something even thinner than Affair would be more suitable. Maybe even light (or extra light) weights of a nice sans-serif would work too.
