Success! Now that I have commented out all of the equivalents in the fontequivv2 file that was in the PSFONTS directory, all of my fonts show up. By the way, there was a noticeable difference between the Helvetica and the CS Triumvirate. I had known this before. I have a Deskjet 500 and the Windows 3.0 driver includes Intellifont and CS Triumvirate. It doesn't replace Helvetica however and after printing a line in both the difference was obvious. That's why I wanted the Helvetica available to me on the Amiga using Pagestream. By the way, I think that with a little work on the user interface and such that Pagestream would certainly make Pagemaker uses fall dead in their tracks. I've liked it from the start and even in its first incarnation it could do things that Pagemaker still can't do in version 4.0. I have to admit though that Pagemaker's user interface seems to be more intuitive and easier to use. By the way, there are still bugs in the Window handling. When I click on an arrow to scroll just a bit instead of dragging a scroll bar the screen gets redrawn, but nothing moves. Same thing if I click on either side of the scroll bar. I am using an Amiga 2000, with a GVP 68030/882 board at 36MHz with 9 MB RAM, the Fat Agnus (ECS), the Commodore Flicker Fixer, WB and Kickstart 2.0 Kickstart v37.175 and WB v37.33. Also the GVP Series II SCSI controller. Ciao, Neil
