I have the Bodek & Rhodes online designer on my website. I've had a few orders come in through it lately, but the image you download really isn't usable. Their fonts seem to have weird names. I'm guessing they rename them? Anyone have any idea how to match them?
Thanks!

maybe they are using this database
https://www.google.com/fonts (https://www.google.com/fonts)

wow, that's pretty nifty, I didn't even know that existed and I use B&R all the time.
Duh!
What fonts aren't matching up for you. I tried 4 or 5 and they seemed fine.
-
The two I need at the moment are flatley and flux arch.
Now that I'm looking a little more, they seem to be on fonts101.com. Is that site safe to download from?
Thanks!

always best to scan with your Virus protector.........I (personally) don't use fonts101 anymore
Try these instead:
http://www.dafont.com/flux.font (http://www.dafont.com/flux.font)

Good advice from Diane but in my experience, fonts 101 is fine, however, make sure to click the button that specifically says "Download Font" as they are one of those sites that allows other third parties to place a "Download" button for their stuff, more prominently.

Just downloaded them from fonts101. I'll let you know if my computer explodes. Wait, I wouldn't be able to if it did.
Now I remember why I aborted the last time I downloaded from there. Not only do you have to be careful to select the download font button instead of the larger download button, but when you do download it, you have to run an exe file, then select advanced and decline installing all the garbage it is packed with.
But it looks like I got from point A to point B.
Thanks everyone!

The trick I have found on some of these sites to find out which "download" button is the right one is to hover over it and see if the link says "googleadservices...//whatever" that is usually the one you dont want.
