Re: Google Font API

I thought I should let everyone know that my long silence has nothing 
to do with the merits of Google's Web fonts (spec., the historic Fell 
type), but is mostly owing to problems I've had with my upgrade to 
Dreamweaver CS5, which doesn't work properly (drops all typographic 
quote marks from routine copy-and-paste operations).

I had to do extensive troubleshooting to even identify the actual 
problem, which no one appears to know how to fix ... plus, I promised 
myself the beginning of this year that I would not post anything more 
to she-philosopher.com until I re-designed the site for CSS-based 
tableless layouts, which I started to do, only to have my design 
strategy undermined by the new Dreamweaver CS5 all-columns-float 
layouts. So, once again, I'm sitting on lots of new content for my 
website, which I can't yet post until I get some pretty complicated & 
confusing layout issues figured out....

I have now reverted to Dreamweaver CS4, but in the process of dealing 
with all of the above, lost my window of opportunity for Fell type 
experiments. :(

Right now, I'm trying to finish up development on 3 websites scheduled 
to launch this month, so I'm not sure when I'll next have a chance to 
experiment with Google Web type, but I plan to get back to this very 
interesting project as soon as I can.

In the meantime, I do have other questions for the list, which I'll 
post to a separate thread so I don't get in trouble (again!) for 
disorderly conduct. ;-)
