Now that Adobe has finally switched over to shipping their
fonts in NFNT format, I thought many problems would be solved.

Then someone told me that the bitmap files that Adobe is
shipping still contain a FOND resource for each styled
font.  (See Technote #198.  This is labeled as the WRONG
way to do it...  There should only be one FOND for the
font family).

Would someone who has the new Adobe files please verify
if this is true and e-mail?  I'll summarize to the net.

Thanks in advance --

Ken
