Jim,
   I have a Pearl 11 font that I use all the time.  Pearl was distributed
a long time ago; possible on net.micro.amiga(!).   If an 11-point font
was not included then I took the distributed 8-point and made the 11-point
from that.   I believe that, basically, the Pearl font was Topaz stripped of
its serifs.  If you (or anyone else for that matter) are interested in a
copy just drop me a note.
