A client is planning to purchase some soft fonts for a PostScript
printer (Qume ScripTen). The supplier (who knows it all, of course :-)
says that as the fonts are for a Mac, they cannot be downloaded
from an IBM PClone. The supplier _says_ that they have tried copying
the fonts from a Mac to a PC, and then downloading, and it didn't
work.

My client is, however, about 500 miles away and I do not want to
have to travel there just to see whether or not this will be a 
problem.

Is this feasable? (That the font can be downloaded from a Mac and
not a PC). If so, is there anything that I can do for them, like
converting from Mac format to PC format? Has anyone done anything
like this before?

As I understand it, a PostScript font is merely a PS program that
describes the shape of the characters. Presumably there is some
sort of encrypting process, so that  fonts don't get modified and
stolen and so on. Is this correct, or likely?

Any replies (e-mail or posting) would be much appreciated.
