Judging from the demo stack, outline fonts look like a nice piece of work. When they are present on a system, will the RealFont ToolBox call always return TRUE (since all font sizes are available)? (I found the outline font demo stack on a bulletin board, but it hasn't been posted to Usenet, which is just as well, as the stuffit archive is 40K bytes.)

Yes. So applications which outline font sizes should outline all the available sizes. The other significant issue is that outline fonts can be bigger than 127 points, which is all that some applications allow. So, now's the time to allow "Other..." in your font size menus!
