What Fonts Are Used in D20 Publishing?

[airwalkrr]

Does anyone know what fonts companies like Wizards of the Coast and Paizo use to publish their D&D material? I know they use the pterra-dactyl font for some of it, but clearly not all of it. Help appreciated. Thanks!

If you take a PDF document from wizards you can see which fonts tey used.
Goto: File -> document properties -> fonts
German Version: Datei -> Dokument Eigenschten -> Schriftarten

This work with Acrobat Prof. I dont know the Acro reader also shows the
properties.

That was exactly what I was looking for, Mortis. Thanks a million.

No, Acrobat Reader probably does not show this info, or I would have known it long ago (Acrobat sucks anyway, use Foxit Reader).

Acrobat Reader performs this function just as jinx outlined, i.e., go to File > Document Properties > Fonts.

Very helpful, both the Adobe Acrobat reader advice and the link. Thanks.

Any idea how they get the background layout (the colored background area on the right and left hand, respectively and the header lines) ?

What is a good font size for e-publishing 8, 10 or 12?

I hear the Papyrus font is quite popular:
