Did you say that Compugraphic creates their PostScript fonts using Fontographer!?

Of course! what other program would they use? Earl Allen, Altsys Technical Support (Publisher's Type Foundry??????????)

So Compugraphic PS fonts are not encoded, and are stored in Fontographer's compressed format?

No $%^##"!? Thanks to you, we've pretty much got our MAC to IBM port done. But so far have no way to create screen fonts. Do you know of anyone who has successfully created GEM or WINDOWS screen fonts either from a Fontographer-created PS font or from a MAC screen font? The software that I was planning to use to create the screen fonts is Publishers Type Foundry from ZSoft. But they cannot at this time import Fontographer PS fonts (and since they also cannot import Adobe fonts, that leaves precious little in the way of PostScript fonts that they CAN import!). Would you be interested in helping ZSoft on developing a way for them to import your PS fonts?

Please note that in my companion message there should have been a line-break before the word "Thanks"
