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.>)
