I've received two press releases from Adobe that I thought might be of some
interest.

The first was issued last month in conjunction with Comdex.  Adobe is
announcing release of additional fonts for use with the LaserWriter and the
Macintosh.  These fonts are licensed from Mergenthaler and ITC.  Twelve
typeface packages will be released in January.  "The Adobe fonts...include
typefaces from the ITC Avant Garde Gothic, ITC Garmond, Palatino and Optima
typeface families among others....  The typefaces released by Adobe Systems
will work on all POSTSCRIPT printers and typesetters."

The second press release was by DEC and Adobe.  It announces that DEC and
Adobe have signed a contract "allowing Digital full use of Adobe's page
description language---POSTSCRIPT." ... "Under the terms of the agreement
with Adobe Systems, Digital can begin using the POSTSCRIPT page description
language and interpreter immediately."
