Tom– Here's another vote for GD and Bitstream working on fonts for the Amiga. I used the CG fonts with PPage and an HP LaserJet for awhile but then got a Pacific Data PS cartridge, mainly for the speed and the extra features postscript allows. The cartridge comes with Bitstream fonts and even to my non-artistic eyes, the Bitstream fonts look quite a bit nicer than the CG fonts. I've seen other comments by people with more experience in looking at fonts, that the Bitstream fonts look nicer than the Adobe fonts. Anything you and Bitstream can do to get the Bitstream fonts for the Amiga would be greatly appreciated. I've got a copy of the Bitstream catalog and know exactly what my first order would be the moment it became possible to use them. Tom
