What equipment are you using to send the fonts from, MAC, MS-DOS? I am using both MACs and Amiga in a service bureau atmosphere. "Elaborate" software still is non-existant for the Amiga. I am however able to initialize the fonts in ASCII format to send to our Linotronic 100 or LW+ for Amiga jobs. My question is mainly if your batch routine has any sort of intelligence as to what fonts are required, or is that operator determined. Thanks

Richard Could you give me a clue as to what you do to initialize the fonts in ASCII format? I have 4 Adobe font packages that are useless to me, since our printers are connected to a VAX, and I need to DL the fonts from it. Any advice is appreciated.
