[comp.sys.mac] why are NFNT fonts still orphans?

yost@esquire.UUCP (David A. Yost) (11/29/89)

The LW fonts in 6.0.4 and the fonts that
come on the LW II NT font disk are all
FONTs instead of NFNTs.  Why is this?
NFNTs have been around for, what, 3 years now?
Adobe finally made NFNT disks available only
a few months ago, and Apple is still not
shipping them.  Why?
