I know about the problems when you use the boldface version of this font, but my question is -- does every computer have this font? So if I export to AutoCAD, will the consultants be guaranteed to have Arial Narrow on their computers, or will it get replaced with regular Arial? Is Arial Narrow included with Windows like Arial and Times New Roman?

TIA.

This page (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;837463) says that Arial Narrow is a standard font with Office XP. I couldn't find anything that specifically says whether this font is a standard of Windows (2000, XP, etc.), but I would assume anyone running Office, even Office 2k, would also have this font.

Is that a safe assumption?
