Slight correction to the above.  It will allow you to create virtually any
size bitmap for any font for which it can find the PostScript description in
the LaserWriter you point it at.  So, you would have to download the font to
the LaserWriter first before you could run FontSizer on it.  I do agree with
Chuq though that it is an excellent product, just not that it is quite the
panacea that he implied.
