Why?

Font discussions have cropped up before in comp.text and comp.laser-printers
(probably in comp.lang.postscript too, but I don't read it).  There has never
been enough volume to justify a whole newsgroup.

No, creating the newsgroup will not magically create discussions in it.
This sounds plausible in theory but it doesn't work that way in practice.
