Stay tuned, Vitesse will soon be releasing "Contours" which they claim will do exactly that for the HP Laser printers, and I assume the Deskjet also.. You might want to give them a call. I am currently using softfonts on my HP IIP on my GS, but I cheat a little. I download the fonts using my PC Transporter card, and then switch over to the Apple side once they are downloaded. Works like a champ with most software and the Harmonie drivers. -- bsherman@mthvax.cs.miami.edu | | MCI MAIL:BSHERMAN
