I'm currently looking into other PostScript fonts that Adobe
distributes.  I've got the Adobe Type Library and some of the fonts
looks interesting.  However, the order form specifies that only IBM or
MAC formats are available.  Can anyone tell me what that means?  While
we've got a bunch of Macs around, I'd also like to be able to use the
fonts from our mini's using ditroff and devps.  Right now, our output
devices include a LaserWriter Plus, a LaserWriter II NTX and a DEC
LPS40.  I'd also like to be able to use the fonts for screen previewing,
but I've heard rumors that they're encoded in some unknown way.  Can
someone shed some light on this?
