The fonts are available via anonymous ftp from sun.soe.clarkson.edu, I believe. Several people I contacted couldn't get METAFONT to run on them, however. If that is a problem, I can supply the necessary .pk/.pxl etc. files...... (I'm writing my MS thesis using LaTeX and need APL characters, so I use these fonts and dvi2ps to get the desired result.) -------------------- Rajeev Pandey | Mail Stop 5-44 Internet: r_pandy@rpandy.Eng.Sun.COM | Sun Microsystems, Inc. | 2550 Garcia Avenue Phone: (415) 336-4891 | Mountain View, CA 94043-1100 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- After September 15th, I'll be back at: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rajeev Pandey | Department of Computer Science Internet: rpandey@cs.orst.edu | Computer Science Building 100 UUCP: hp-pcd!orstcs!rpandey | Oregon State University Phone:(503) 737-3273 Fax:(503) 737-3014 | Corvallis, OR 97331-3902 U.S.A.
