In the magazie _Computer Currents_ it is reported that Bitstream
has cracked the Adobe font magic, and we can expect Adobe compatible
fonts from them. Ones that look good at small sizes.
Also, in the Feb ESD, it is reported that Toshiba will describe,
at CICC, a 20 Mhz outline font-rasterizing IC tht produces Bezier
curves, lines and arcs at a rate of 4 dots per clock cycle.
But you Adobe people probably knew this already, huh ?
