Even though Xerox Ventura Publisher is not a Windows application, you do
have access to soft fonts from many other vendors (e.g. Bitstream,
SoftCraft, etc.). For example, Bitstream's Fontware package with 9
additional fonts is now included in Version 2.0 (which I assume you will be
upgrading to shortly). For on-going compatibility information, I suggest
you keep in touch with at least one of the two largest Ventura users
groups:
VENTURA USERS OF NORTH AMERICA
John Wilson (416) 482-3710
1 Heath Street West
Toronto ONT Canada M4T 1T7
VPUG Central - (NOTE: Also, publishes annual font directory)

In addition to the places listed so far for fonts, you might find
it most worthwhile to contact Custom Fonts, Inc. in the Los Angeles
Area. The typefaces designed and fonts produced are absolutely
top quality; customers include Dave Packard Jr. (son of Dave Packard
of Hewlett-Packard fame!) and the like...
Ask for Don Taylor, the head typeface/font designer, and tell him
that you read about the company on the net...
Custom Fonts
6394 Smoke Tree Avenue
Agoura CA 91301
(818) 889-2349
I hope to be purchasing a LaserJet soon myself, to hook up with
Ventura -- one advantage of this configuration being that I can
use the Custom Fonts instead of the fonts that are shipped with
the HP printer (which I consider very poor).
