For those of you who have been asking about how to download fonts to your PostScript printers, I'd like to note that we have (finally) released our PostScript Printer Utility, which handles downloading of fonts among other useful features. If you'd like to know more, send us email or your US mail address! Naturally, it supports our PostScript fonts, BTW.

Please let me know how to order your PostScript font downloader. I assume that it downloads Adobe Type 1 fonts to the printer like the downloader that comes with such fonts (but only runs on a Mac or MS DOS machine?)

The trick is to get the Adobe fonts onto the Amiga disk in the first place. For this we supply instructions on how to take Mac versions and use a few tricks plus Mac-2-Dos (or the equivalent) to bring them over. The approach for IBM format should be very similar. I would like to be able to provide Adobe fonts in Amiga compatible format, but we have to wait for Adobe to respond.
