: Where can I find additional fonts for Warp?

For PD and shareware fonts, try ftp-os2.nmsu.edu, I think in the
directory os2/multimedia/fonts, or something like that.  OS/2 can also
use fonts intended for Windows' ATM, if they've got .AFM files (not all
come with this).  The .PFM files that Windows uses can often be converted
to .AFM files with the utility PFM2AFM, which is also on
ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.

For high-quality commercial fonts, I strongly recommend the Bitstream 500
Font CD for Windows.  This CD is $30 and includes all the files that OS/2
needs for installation for use with both OS/2 and Windows programs.  The
fonts on the CD are, by and large, of much higher quality than the ones
on ftp sites, though there are a handful of good freeware and shareware
fonts.
