Can Adobe fonts which I purchased and used in Win XP be installed in Vista?

Yes. Opentype and TrueType fonts can be just dragged into the Fonts folder
in Control Panel to install them. However, I believe support for Type 1
postscript fonts has been dropped in Vista.
If you have many fonts (thousands) I recommend you get a font manager, like
Extensis Suitcase. It makes things so much easier.

I assume you mean Postscript in general?
DesktopPublishingForum would be a good place to check this out:
http://desktoppublishingforum.com/bb/showthread.php?t=978
is one short but old (pre-vista release) thread asking about this but
with no clear conclusion. I suggest you ask there.
Here may be a more useful thread in the Adobe forum:

Good luck.

worked!

Did you use the suggested method:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Installation Adobe PostScript printer drivers for Windows Vista
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Unpack instalation file to any folder
2. Find the "setup.exe" in "Adobe" folder, and choose "properties"
3. In "Compatibility mode" set "Windows XP ..." and accept it
4. Run the "setup.exe" as Administrator option.
which seems to help with practically all installation problems?

I got most of mine to install but I hear some of the Masters won't. HitDon said:Thanks for the links.

and miss I guess but support is over and I think Adobe no longer sell
them...I think.
