Yesterday I called Adobe to purchase the Optima soft font package for
a LaserWriter connected to a Sun workstation.  I was surprised to learn
that Adobe only sells fonts for Mac or Dos platforms.  Does this mean
that nobody in the Unix world is using soft fonts?  Or is there another
supplier out there?  Obviously width compatibility with Adobe's version
of Optima is a must.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
