There’s a font that is part of my Adobe package ‘Myriad Pro’. I want to use it in the Text spline tool. Any idea how I can do this or the best way to get a spline with that font into Max?

Myriad is a type 1 font, and Max only uses TrueType - but if you’ve got something like Adobe Illustrator installed you can create the text in there, export it as a .AI file, and it’ll import into Max as a spline. You won’t be able to change the text in Max but you can apply all the same modifiers.
