The default Adobe Type Reunion menu has problems with some fonts.
The workaround is to hold down the shift key to get the standard
font menu.  The specific problems I have discovered are:

1. The Chicago Symbols font does not appear, either by itself or
   as a submenu of Chicago.  (Chicago Symbols is a PostScript
   type 3 font, I believe from CE Software, which includes some
   of the special symbols (like the command key symbol) from the
   Chicago font.)

2. The New Baskerville Fractions font, a modified font I created
   using Parafont, does not appear in the menu.

I reported these problems to Adobe Technical Support on July 6.
The Technical Support representative promised to call me back,
but he never did.
