Larry, DesignText does not support standard fonts for many reasons, but the most important one is that they do not print very well. For the 2nd release of DesignText there will be a font editor included that allows you at the same time to create a printer font AND a screen rendition of that font for use in DesignText. We'd like to include it now, but it has been 10 months since we started DT, and would like to get it on the market. It comes with 3 Good, clean fonts, 1 Outline, 1 Modern, 1 New-York style, 1 Greek-Math, 1 Small Caps, 1 Russian <grin>, (Did you read the OLT that the Amiga is being demonstrated in Russia!) and a Symbols (Draw boxes, etc, etc on screen – Will include 150-200 symbols like lines, symbols, etc). Also, each different font has the ALT characters and accents included. DesignText also supports ANY and ALL keymaps so you can use Dvorak keymaps (USA2) or the language keymaps (French, German, etc).
