Has anyone installed Blue Sky Research's Computer Modern  
PostScript fonts on the NeXT?  I'm trying to install the version  
Y&Y distributes.

I create ~/Library/Fonts and put a folder cminch.font in it.
Inside cminch.font is the outline file, cminch, and cminch.afm.
I then run buildafmdir ~/Library/Fonts.

The font shows up in the Font Panel, but it calls it
MINCH (drops the C) and says it is <<Unusable Font>>.

I've installed lots of other Adobe fonts using their font  
installer with no problems, but this is the first font I've  
tried to install by hand.
