Craig Bennett (craig@locus.com) tells of Super Print, a font package he uses:

    o "works great" with "non-postscript laser"
    o "output is nearly as good as the Apple IINTX ... at work"
    o "has a queue which you can use to replace Windows Print manager"
    o "returns control to your app much sooner than [Windows Print Manager.]"
    o "allows 'on the fly' text in Windows apps"
    o "imports typefaces from ATM and Bitstream"
    o "a bit more expensive than the other packages"

Sounds interesting!  How do the fonts look on an ol' DMP?  How much hard
disk space does it take up?  What about memory requirements?  (I believe
that) ATM requires at least 2 meg.  How much more or less does SP require?
Do you have the same functionality with imported Bitstream and ATM fonts
that you have with "native Super Print" fonts?  At the risk of making your
post sound like an advertisement, what is the list price on it?

Does anyone else use Super Print?  How do you like it?
