When I collect a 6.0 job it does not pick-up both the printer and screen font when the font is stylized with the menu button, Quark 5.0 did. Is there a solution? or I'm I doing something wrong in collecting?
 
When you select "Collect for output", at the bottom of the window that appears, make sure you check of "Screen Fonts" and "Printer Fonts". They are turned off by default.
 
If you are using the I, B, buttons at the bottom of the tool bar to apply italic or bold to your font - DON'T

Doing this can cause your printer problems or cause the font to not print in bold or italic. This is a common mistake.

Be sure you choose a bold or italic type face (ex. Times bold not Times with the bold button clicked to apply bold to the font) otherwise you may be bolding a font that is not available in bold. This will cause your printer problems when they run the file to film.

I have 10 years of design/print experience and I have learned that it's best to use the actual typeface. The buttons may work sometimes, but do you want to take that chance when you go to press?
 
Pay attention to the last post - Wise, wise words.

Don't go anywhere near those buttons - they will end up causing you pain and money.

Always select bold and italic fonts from your font menu.

ALWAYS.
