For all of you happy Post1.1 users who have been fontless, there is
a set of Shareware (a couple are PD) fonts.  Most, if not all, of
this current batch of fonts come from one person, Butch Mahoney.  His
suggested shareware contribution is a very reasonable $20.  He has
designed many more PostScript fonts, but hasn't had very good luck
with shareware. 

If the Amiga community could suprise Butch with a good shareware 
response, maybe he'd let us have some more of his very nice fonts.
At the very least, we'd be making a good name for ourselves.

Between these fonts and Adrian Aylward's Post1.1 (and whatever tools
the future may hold...8^) the Amiga may be the first machine with
freely redistributable professional quality  Desktop Publishing. 

oh, BTW, the fonts are on june.cs.washington.edu, in pub/fonts.zoo
