Is there a reason you just don't use the Carrara internal text tool?    It sounds like it's not the font's fault but something in the way Illistrator is exporting or the way Carrara is interpreting the file when it imports it.  If it's not completely crusian that you go through illustrator, then just crate it in Carrara and eliminate the middleman.

Quote - Hey all , does anyone know of a web site that has custom fonts in a obj or 3d's format not a "True Type Font file format ?."
I tried to import the special font that i want in "True Type Font format "into illustrator and export thru a "eps" or "ai "file ,and then import thru Carrara's spline room the font appeared but the integrity and shape of the font looked nothing like the original  that was in illustrator !
A bit stumped a little help any one , Cheers , Michael.
