Does anyone know where to get the Adobe type 1 fonts that come standard on most
Postscript Laser printers (i.e. Times, Helvetica, Bookman ,New Century, etc.)

I want to create the Amiga screen fonts  using Aylward's mkbmap utility.

I have tried using converted Mac screen fonts in Prowrite, but the Mac screen
fonts are actually composed of the intended font and the Symbol font. For
 example, the New Century Schoolbook font also has some characters from Symbol
mixed in, and the postscript prologue in Prowrite cannot SetFont to more than
one font, so it can't print all of the characters in the screen font (I have
already modified the prologue to reflect Mac's different encoding).



Thanks for the Info!!!
