Font Grumble

Why do some fonts not come with punctuation? I always type up my journaling in the standard Times New Roman, highlight it, and then switch to the font I want. It is beyond bothersome to find the perfect font, hit "enter," and then discover that my commas, periods, and apostrophes disappear. Are there really that many people out there who are anti-punctuation?

it's called laziness on the part of font designers...or it's just a conspiracy against us punctuation users!!

I KNOW. That is so incredibly irritating. I've actually uninstalled fonts in a fit of pique because they didn't have punctuation.

But, then, I'm given to fits of pique.

Totally agree. I usually try and find a similar font and use its punctuation, but what a pain!
