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?

        Baskerville-Normal
        Baskerville-Bold
        Baskerville-Italic
        Blippo-Heavy
        Bodoni-Normal
        Bodoni-Bold
        Bodoni-Italic
        Brush-Script-Italic
        Cooper-Heavy
        Garamond-Normal
        Garamond-Medium-Italic
