All this discussion about fraktur fonts somewhat begs the original
question, since (Gothic) != (Old English).  I assume that the original
poster wanted to typeset quotations from (eg) Chaucer or Piers
Plowman, and so needs to have yogh, thorn, eth and so forth.

If anyone does know of fonts that would fit the bill, I would also be
interested in hearing about them (caveat: I don't have ftp access, so
ftp sites are pretty useless to me personally.)

Thanks,
	Mark
