If Ventura runs under Windows, then you can get any number of fonts for it. Bitstream sells PCL (HP Printer Control Language) fonts which will work for the Laserjet II under Windows. I use them with Pagemaker (I haven't used Ventura for almost a year and cannot remember if runs under Windows or uses built-in fonts). Aldus sells Fontware diskettes for Pagemaker 3.0, which will work for Ventura if Ventura runs under Windows. Someexamples of Bitstream fonts for the HP Laserjet printer are: Century Schoolbook, Optima, Broadway, Cooper, Gothic. Cooper and Broadway are part of a package called "Headlines." ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop@plaid.sun.com Administrivia to: desktop-request@plaid.sun.com UUCP: {amdahl,decwrl,hplabs}!sun!plaid!desktop{-request} Archives can be gotten from the archive-server.

It does not matter if Ventura Publisher runs under MS Windows or not. Bitstream sells an installation kit for Ventura Publisher as well as for MS Windows (they also have font installation kits for a lot of other programs as well, like, MS Word 4.0). Why buy Fontware from Aldus if you do not have PageMaker? Get them from the source. Call Bitstream at 1 800 522-3668. They will be more than happy to answer and questions.

I am just a VERY satisifed customer. ---------------------------------------- Submissions to: desktop@plaid.sun.com Administrivia to: desktop-request@plaid.sun.com UUCP: {amdahl,decwrl,hplabs}!sun!plaid!desktop{-request} Archives can be gotten from the archive-server.
