It works for me, but, there's one strange behaviour

...I don't much like: from time to time, when you open an application, it says the app needs a certain font, and offers to help you go and buy it. At first I thought managing fonts (I have hundreds) had switched off some that really were needed, but then I realised that these were almost invariably fonts that had never been installed on my system, and that were certainly not needed by the apps in question. Why would the Wacom tablet application want a font called MyKindaTown, for example? I thought it might be some kind of sales gimmick from Linotype - but they don't sell a font with that name, indeed a font with that name does not seem to exist at all. So I don't know what's going on. You can ignore all such requests, but still... For the rest, I've had no problems with InDesign. I wish it would flag duplicates, though. Not bad for free.
