Don,
Also, it's important to notice that (unlike some other forums) I don't
run the DTP Forum as some sort of "king." Several of our sysops feel
strongly that we should not post knocked-off fonts, and I'm inclined in
that direction myself…and will go along with whatever Brad, Dan,
Kathleen, Dianne, Mike, Skye and Mike agree on or feel strongly about.
For now, we are not posting knocked-off fonts.
–Thom
(But would you want them here if they were available in other forums, and
being advertised in dozens of "public domain $3 software" ads? And how is
this different from the zillions of copyrighted images that are _now_
available in other CIS forums? <We've already taken the position that we
will _not_ accept scans of copyrighted material…which has seriously
limited our libraries.>)
