To build using

Using Mac OS X (10.4.3 – 10.4.8) and OpenType, I’ve run into a problem where if I select an Adobe OpenType Pro font (like MinionPro) and try to use the cmd-I or cmd-B comments in Word, I get fake italics or fake bold. This problem only occurs with OpenType Pro fonts. Sisyphus, in Greek mythology, the cunning king of Corinth who was punished in Hades by having to repeatedly roll a huge stone up a hill only to have it roll back down again as soon as he had brought it to the summit. Learn more about Sisyphus in this article. Sisyphus wrote: I had exactly the same problem as I created too small a var partition. If you're in the same sit (and haven't got a monolithic / partition) you can take the same approach I did.
