Scott Anthony studios in San Francisco sells a 3 PS font package for
$35, and one of them is a broadway clone.

It's, uhh, an Amiga format disk. Ha ha.

I have them and they're a bit rough - too rough to use IMHO, but maybe
you can find a size you can use. The problems I have is that there
are gaps in some of the letters at certai sizes. Ie, at 18 points the
``O'' doesnt close. SO you goto 24 and now the ``B'' doesnt close.

I've looked at the code and it looks ok, but ????????????
