I posted a question about using ps fonts with Latex a while ago.
Here's the answer...  you need to have the ps font .sty files.
(times.sty, bookman.sty, chancery.sty, etc.).

To use these in Latex you say:

\documentstyle[11pt,chancery]{article}

or whichever ps font you want...

These style files modify the default fonts (specified in lfonts.tex)
to be a set of ps fonts.  I believe you also need to have a dvi->ps
driver that understands how to use ps fonts.

Thanx to those who responded!
