Well.. here's the scanario:

	I have an Amiga 2000 at home running the word processor
	Excellence!. After typing up a documment, I print
	the file to a disk file with the postscript lang
	and then upload it to our sun-workstation network.

	After printing it, I notice that the fonts it has in
	ROM come out 5 billion times nicer than the Amiga
	fonts that need translation into ps.

	How can I get my Laserwriter (through the network)
	to print out a sample of EVERY font it knows in ROM
	and a few characters to see all the typestyles I
	can play with?

Please reply thru here or mail and I appreciate your time.
