DC << Will Fountain automatically create and copy all the files that are required for Agfa CompuGraphic outline fonts>> I believe most of the 'support' files used by the CG font engine should have been pre-installed. Fountain creates the .font, .otag, and .type files for each outline font when it installs them. If you need to install the supporting files manually, you will find the bullet.library in LIBS, and Fountain in the System drawer of the orginal Workbench 2.1 disk. The rest of the files will be on the 'Fonts' disk, including three outline fonts that have already been installed (CGTimes, CGTriumvirate, and LetterGothic). — DC <<Why isn't the Fountain explained in the Amiga manual?>> Some info covering Fountain is in chapter 8 of the 'Workbench 2.1 User's Guide'. Commodore's manuals aren't the best, in fact when I purchased my A1200, the Arexx, AmigaDOS, and Hard drive manuals were part of an optional package. – Ron.
