Well, there are p[lenty of PD and shareware fonts in GDOS format, both
for Epson and 300 dpi printers, on GEnie. RAM limitaation prevented me
to try more than one, and as I already need 3 300 dpi fonts, I have no
more RAM in my little 1040. But that's good stuff, give it a try.
Note that if you modify frequently your font configuration, you will need
either G+ from Codehead or some utility like SuperBoot (also on GEnie)
to choose your config.sys file at boot time.
