Rodrigo: Try ordering the "World-Class" fonts package from Dubl-Click software. THey have a font in that collection called "Odessa" which has all the chess pieces. You'll have to by the other 40+ fonts to with the package, but I'm sure you'll be able to find a use for them eventually. Dubl-CLick ads are in most issues of MacUser or MacWorld magazine, and so you can get their number there. I would recommend that you order through one of the discount houses and save yourself some money, rather than ordering directly from the manufacturer. Good luck. Jim Collymore p.s. These are bit-mapped fonts, not postscript fonts, so if you run them off a laser printer they may look a little jagged around the edges.
