Most of the Adobe Bitmaps (Screen Fonts) are available from CompuServe and Service Bureaus, plus places like some FTP sites, PPA, and the 'Right Stuffed' CD-ROM - and probably a few others. Some bitmaps can't be distributed because of the licensing agreements. Again, screen fonts (most) are freely distributed because you can't do much with them alone, except set up documents. That's why service bureaus give them away- knowing that to print the document you'll have to come back to them. Hope the information helps. Brian Bezanson Adobe Systems
