  I would like to set myself up with a font management environment,
including printer and corresponding WYSIWYG screen fonts.  I use 
Windows 3.0 and various applications, but mostly Word for Windows 
and Designer.  I have an HP laserjet plus and a high res monitor 
(1024 X 768 X 256) that I may upgrade to 1280 X 1024 in the future.
 
  Beside the usual Times Roman and Helvetica typefaces, I need a 
comprehensive set of math symbols and I would like to have some 
decorative and headline typefaces.  In addition I would like to 
be able to make my own fonts in case I run into a symbol that is 
not in the sets I have.
 
  Within reason, money is not a major concern.  Can anybody help me
or give me pointers as to what is available and what I should consider?
 
  Thanks
