Sigh.  Here I thought I was being helpful by providing the toll-free
number (that's what the "800" area code means, to those of you who
are not familiar with the U.S. phone system).  I will certainly provide
the expensive long-distance number in the future, as well.  I have no
idea how to call here  from wherever you are, so you must supply the
appropriate prefixes, if any, to these numbers.  To refresh people's
memories, you can call to get a copy of the "Font & Function" font
catalog from Adobe:

	Adobe Systems:
	    In U.S.:	1-800-83-FONTS
	    Europe:	31-20-575-3193	(Amsterdam)
	    Elsewhere:	415-961-4400

I hope I've gotten it right this time.  Sorry to bother everybody with
this trivia.
