 I just got an ATI 8514 Ultra and it is fantastic with windows. I have
heard that their crystal fonts aren't yet available for win3.1. Does
anyone have any info on if and when they may become available.

 Also, are the crystal fonts worthwhile as far as increasing the apparent
resolution of the screen fonts vs. the loss of redraw speed?

 As I understand it, there is a converter available that will take a post-
script font and make a crystal font from it. Does this procedure work
effectively when using windows as a dtp platform?

 Thanks for any info on crystal fonts and/or the ati 8514 ultra in general.
