I'm looking for an example PostScript font. I don't want a screen-rep font, I want to see an ASCII example of what is called a downloadable font. I know the Red book has an example or two on redefining characters, but I'd like to see an example from the real world. Or, is it possible to fetch the dictionary definitions of the existing fonts in a PostScript printer? Read action:

Whoops, sorry, forgot I was using this account. My name is John Foust. Syndesis is an Amiga company that makes software to enhance 3D programs. I don't have a Mac. You're saying the ASCII text is in the resource fork of a downloadable file? Why isn't it in the data fork? And where can I find a sample downloadable font? Thanks, Gary… Read action:
