In fact, it should be fairly straightforward.  Since you have an Apple,
you also have Courier fonts.  I suspect that you should be able to use
them by selecting Courier with .ft CR.  If, however, you do not have
font tables for Courier, and your DESC file contains no reference to them,
you will have to ask your supplier (or someone on the net) to provide
the tables.

I hope that answers your question satisfactorily.
