Has anoyone had trouble with the Tekton font located on Sonata?
(/pub/next/graphics/fonts/Tekton.tar.Z)  I've downloaded all the 
fonts from there, plus installed quite a few of my own, but is the
only one that seems to give me problems.  Everytime I attempt to use
it, I end up with 12-point Helvetica, regardless of the selected point
size.  I know the .afm is working, because although the charectors are in
12-point type, the relative kerning of the cursor acts as though I were
printing the correct size letters.  (ie.  If I type "xyzzy" with Tekton
64-point, "xyzzy" appears as 12-poin Helvi, but the cursor is halfway
down the screen)  All the other fonts work fine, I've even re-downloaded
this sucker several times to make sure evything was ok.  If anyone has a
working copy, tell me how you installed it!  (or if you are extremely
cheery then please NeXTmail a copy over_)

Thanks,
