I have a GCC PLP II laser printer.  It comes with some outline fonts
(Times, Courier, Helvitica....)

I want to get more outline fonts, such as Avant-Garde, and Bookman.
GCC sells this in a "fonts plus" package.  I have two questions:

1) Is ATM and screen fonts a reasonable substitute for outline fonts
at 8-12 point sizes??

2) I can get the fonts plus package mail-order for the GCC PLP I for
lots cheaper than from GCC.  Are these compatible with the PLP II???

I called GCC, and haven't really been able to talk to a techinical person.
The telephone answering (order taking?) person says PLP I fonts ARE
compatible, but I'm a mac-novice, and want someone with more knowledge to
say yes or no......

Please e-mail a response -- thanks for the help...
