My partner and I are interested in using all the fonts in the LaserWriter + in the postscript programs that we are writing but unfortunately, none of the postscript books that we have (the 3 Adobe books and the Sybex book) seem to have any information on font names except for those supplied in the original LaserWriter. Can anyone out there supply us with a list of all the correct font names or at least supply us with a pointer to this information? Thank you very much. __ DC -- David Cohen {uunet}!mstan\ Big Electric Cat Public Unix {bellcore,cmcl2}!cucard!dasys1!cohen New York, NY, USA {sun}!hoptoad/

Otherwise: The L+ and LW NT(X) has: Times(R,B,I,BI), Helvetica(R,B,O,BO), Courier and Symbol New Century Schoolbook(R,B,I,BI) Palatino(R,B,I,BI) Avant Garde (R,O,B,BO) Zapf Chancery (Medium) Zapf Dingbats(R,I) Bookman (R,B,I,BI) Helvetica Narrow (R,B,O,BO) (*R=Roman, I=Italic, O=Oblique, B=Bold) One LW+ I have used also had the font Seattle built in, although I don't know why.
