Can someone please tell me if the Lucida fonts are available for TeX users?
If so, where can I get them from and (gulp) how much do they cost? Would it
be wishful thinking to ask if the AMS symbols are covered as well?
I've got a copy of 'The Many Faces of TeX' out of TUGboat 9 (2), in which
it is mentioned that people like Adobe, Imagen, and Bigelow & Holmes are
working on Lucida. Can any or all of the above respond please?

Other than CM and Lucida, are there any other font families that can be used
with TeX for technical/math typesetting?
