[comp.lang.postscript] OCRB or MCR fonts wanted...

rnews@qut.edu.au (11/01/90)

I am looking for PostScript code for an OCR-B font or an MCR font (as
found on cheques).

If you have got either of these I would be very keen to get a copy!!

Could you let me know if you have or know where to get such things?


Thanks,

  Call 1-800-83Fonts (Adobe) they sell versions of these fonts.  Note that the
banking industry is very particular about the size and shape of these fonts.
The Adobe versions are okay, but some others on the markets (at least in the
early days) are not.

Try the Adobe Type Library.  They sell both OCR-A and OCR-B.  Infomagic
is the Australian distributor.
