There was an posting today on comp.sys.next.announce regarding Adobe 
shipping a free upgrade to 3.0.1 for owners of Adobe Illustrator 3.0.
In fact, I already received this package (pleasant surprise!) in
yesterday's mail.  The upgrade was accompanied by two disks of bonus
fonts (three families-- Garamond, Copperplate Gothic, and Gill Sans).

I just not installed the upgrade and the fonts.  Even bigger surprise:
the fonts are available for use in OTHER applications, such as Edit and
Write Now!  Things work fine.

Gosh, thank you, Adobe folks!  I normally don't feel quite so well 
treated by software companies.

(P.S. The Type Library Guide that comes with the fonts is partly written
and produced by Glenn Reid, well-known to readers of this group.)
