After all the recent talk about the benefits of using Adobe screen fonts even
for laser printing on the LaserWriter, I downloaded the Times family from
info-mac. Since Adobe uses the correct definition of the term "font", I now
have the fonts Times Roman, Times Bold, Times Italic, etc. in various sizes. I
seem to remember reading about some way to integrate these fonts into a font
family so that, e.g., rarther than selecting Times Italic from the font menu, I
would only select Times, and setting the style would select the appropriate
font.

Can someone refresh my memory? I think it had to do with NFNT resources.

Thanks.

Rajiv
