Proprietary Fonts
I've just purchased Gotham font from Hoefler & Frere-Jones. I'm using the fontspec package, and have been able to use in Latex every font loaded in my FontBook app (on a mac, using MacTex) except for this font. I have .otf files, which I know should work. Does anyone know of some trick I need to do for this font to work? Is the problem that the font is proprietary?
Thanks very much!

Proprietary Fonts
Are the fonts already installed system-wide?
It shouldn't matter that they're proprietary (unless they have some kind of crazy DRM on them, but I've never heard of DRM on a font). The only real problem with their being proprietary is that it makes it very hard for those of who don't own the font to try to help you.
