It is 'missing' from a pdf file or something like that? There is actually a way of extracting fonts from pdfs- ie ones that don't seem to have been embedded- I'll have to relook for where I put my notes.

(What does lubalgraph look like?)

I'm assuming it would be Lubalin Graph.

A lot of cheap Font CDs as you would get at Staples for Less than $20 should have something similar.

Look for a similar name, usually nearby in the alphabet, like: Penguin, Penyae, Pinion or something like that.

And IAN, If you find that PDF thingy, PLEASE post it.

I think this may be what Ian was referring to:

Placing a PDF File in Adobe Illustrator

Following the step by step allows you to retain the font vectors in Illustrator without having to have the fonts used in the PDF.

Wow, this thread is gold to me. I can't count the number of times I've needed to extract the vectors from a PDF when I didn't have the fonts. Thanks!!

My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone.
