I've added in about >50< new Type I fonts (the majority being shareware.. and are fully ATM 1.2 - 2.0 compatable -- which answers KKreuger's question up there..) in the last four or five weeks.. so it'd be worth your while to check it out, when you have the chance... To hook up to the archive, FTP anonymously to um-mts.cc.umich.edu (35.1.1.43) or ub-mts.cc.umich.edu (35.1.1.47).. type in "cd pc2:" to switch to the macintosh archives, then either "get do/download2 downloadinfo.txt" for downloading information and/or "get !index index.txt" which transfers the entire index to your account to browse through. One thing I need to make clear is the fact you'll need to enter in a second name after the first file name in your GET command.. the reason being is that you probably don't have a "do/" or "fo/" (font) directory on your Unix account and when you type in, say "get fo/brody3" by itself.. your ftp is looking for an fo/ directory to place the font file into.. "get fo/brody3 brody3.sit.hqx" instead WILL work and you transfer one of the many --oh...-- couple hundred fonts available on line to your account to unbinhex and unstuff. Please send me mail if you have any questions or comments.. I'm eager to help... thanks, all..

Are there any archives like this with fonts for ATM for windows. Can I use the mac fonts? Any help appreciated. Paul

There are a large number of fonts (Type I and III) at um-mts.cc.umich.edu. This server is not the easiest thing in the world to use, and I have to learn it anew every time I use it. There is so much stuff there that it pays off. Hack at it a bit, and if you have any problems, leave me mail, and I'll figure it out again and tell you how to use it. An easier server to use (but not quite as rewarding) is the one at sumex-aim.stanford.edu. Look in info-mac/font. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kurt Krueger | BITNET: KKRUEGER@UNOMA1 | //\ MBA student | Internet: KKRUEGER@ZEUS.UNOMAHA.EDU | \X/--\ M I G A ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Old soldiers never die--young ones do. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
