I hope that this isn't a simple question, but i noticed the other day while
reading something (I can't remember what it was I was reading now) and it
occurred to me that all of the ImageWriter fonts (or bit-mapped fonts) were
named after Cities [i.e. Chicago, New York, Boston, Los Angeles, etc] and that
the Laser fonts were named after a style [Times, New Century SchoolBook, 
Palentino]

I guess that I am just curious, but is this the naming standard?

Thanks,

David Crist
