While some other fonts like ``phvb'' work fine. Could some one help me understand the error message and find the solution for it? Thanks. Please email. StoneSerif-Bold is not a built-in font. Helvetica-Bold (which phvb refers to) is. You must buy StoneSerif separately. This is one way to do it, if my memory is correct: 1) Buy the Adobe "Stone Serif" Type 1 Font for the Macintosh. 2) Run the "unAdobe" program on the Macintosh (available from various archives) on the font files. You get *.unAdobe files. Transfer these as *text* to your PeeCee. 3) These *.unAdobe files can now be renamed to corresponding *.pfb files. You could also buy the fonts in PC format, but I don't know how to proceed in that case. Could somebody please explain the legal aspects. Are Adobe fonts licensed to be used on one printer (at a time?) only? Or one machine only? Or by one individual (at a time?) only? -- Tor Lillqvist, working, but not speaking, for the Technical Research Centre of Finland
