Speaking of Adobe typefaces...
If anyone from Adobe is out there (hard to tell since Brian Beziaton left),
here's a suggestion for ATM 1.3 (if and when): a list of bitmap-to-PS font
mappings. When a QD request is intercepted for a given font, check the list
and generate the font from the specified font file. This would simplify e.g.
trying to print the umpteen gazillion variants of Monaco (most of which can be
99% duplicated by LetterGothic PS font).
