[comp.fonts] downloading DeskJet fonts

arritt@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu (01/19/91)

The recently-posted (comp.binaries.ibm.pc) utility to convert 
LaserJet fonts to DeskJet promises to be very useful.  Now, 
the question is how do I download the fonts to the dj and 
get my software to recognize them?  For day-to-day correspondence, etc
I use the editor in Microsoft Works.  (For more complicated stuff I
use TeX and will stick with the default cmr fonts to keep life simple.)

I've seen references such that "you can use the commonly available
utilities to download the fonts", but nothing more specific than that.
The dj manual says that you get the download software and instructions
when you buy HP's soft fonts :-)

I've found utilities for downloading fonts to the LaserJet, but don't know
whether using these with the DeskJet will turn my entire system into a 
pool of molten slag...  And I'm getting tired of 10 pt courier...  
Thanks for any help you can provide.
