I wrote in article <1143@ulowell.cs.ulowell.edu>: >Lastly, I have two disks bulging with fonts converted from Mac format. >Don't know the distribution status of these, but can find out. >Send me e-mail if you are interested. Needless to say, I got a sh*tload of e-mail. I spoke today with Peter, the originator of these disks; he claims that all were downloaded from commercial BBS services (mostly GEnie), and that since they were on a public BBS, he understands them to be in the public domain. So, he said it was OK to ship 'em around, as long as I explained their origins. He also has a BASIC program to convert Mac format fonts to Amiga format. This might be worthwhile to have just for the instructional value. Note that I DON'T have the program, just the fonts. The program and the two disks of fonts will be sent to Fred Fish (by Peter, not by me) eventually, but he's under some heavy contract until September '87, so he'll get to it when he can squeeze it in. I'll make copies of the fonts for anyone interested. Send two disks and a couple of 22c postage stamps to: Bob Page Zoxso PO Box 283 Lowell MA 01853 USA Note this is not a Zoxso project, but a public (read "non-profit") service. I will keep disks that come without return postage. Overseas requests should have the appropriate return postage enclosed. I will supply the mailer, unless you send one. Feel free to repost this offer on other networks and BBSs. ..Bob -- Bob Page, U of Lowell CS Dept. page@ulowell.{uucp,edu,csnet}

As the new, proud owner of ProWrite (great program, by the way!), I need all the fonts I can get! I'll send you the disks & stamps this weekend! I also need to make some overhead transparencies (vugraphs) for presentation. I already have Zuma fonts, but I need more (non-weird) fonts in the 18-24 point size. If anyone knows of any, please let me know! Thanx in advance. By the way, whatever happened to the ZLI command line interpreter? Or has Zoxso gone into some other product line? I know that you're not supposed to advertise on Usenet, so you can reply directly to me on this one if you like.

I for one, would like to hear about the output of Prowrite. How is the printout? What type of printers have you tried it on? Is it really stuck in interlace???? -- "Truth is false and logic lost..." - Neil Peart (who at the time didn't realize he was talking about RU) lachac@topaz.rutgers.edu <--------OR--------> {seismo|ames}!rutgers!topaz!lachac
