Earl: When you say there aren't any screen fonts to convert with the Royals, where does the font metric information reside? Is there something similar to the ATM file that Adobe uses, or is it somehow imbedded into the outline file? Also, everyone keeps talking about the Adobe Type 1 spec release which will be released as a Red Book extension published by Addison-Wesley and easily obtainable. I'd love to see the Royal font specs and can't seem to figure out where to get a hold of them. APDA doesn't have it listed in its lastest catalog. Certified Apple developers got copies, but do you have any idea how the general public can obtain a copy? Just curious. –jon
