Most of the fonts works. (I tried 20 and 4 of them did not work.  They
are Adobe Optima Family).  I also tried some PD created by
fontgraph2.3. I can display the fonts but can not print.  Someone sent
me one created by fontgraph3.x (I forgot that guy's name) and it did
work fine.  However, keyboard mapping is different as expected.
So I assume most Type 1 fonts can be ported to NeXT without a lot of
trouble.
