I got version 1.17 from Electronic Boutique in Nashua NH. 5 weeks ago for $29.99. I like the fonts, and I have not noticed problems with the sub or super- script sizes of the fonts, but I don't use it for technical writing. I do my technical writing with LaTeX, and the PK/Postscript fonts look pretty good. I still can't get the hang of the GUI interfaces for technical writing. I can put things together a lot quicker in LaTeX. Frank Robey fcr@ll.mit.edu
