Ventura Publishing includes them.  As to Adobe, they are fairly arrogant
people anyway.  I doubt you can get anything out of them.  I do not know
what they sell the AFM files for, but I should like to obtain some of them.
You mentioned that they are available off the file server. How does one access
the file server and get them.  Thanks for a reply...
