This notice appeared on the net earlier (I forgot which group)
It sounds too good to be true, the font descriptions mention
some BBS (Courtesy of PUBLISHERS' PARADISE BBS (205)882-6886 HST D/S)
but the AFM files say copyright Adobe. Are these PD clones of
Adobe and others fonts or are they the (copyrighted) thing?
--------------- begin included previous posting --------------

have been set up properly for NeXT machines nor are they often fully
PostScript type 1 compatible.
