I just purchased a Deskjet printer.  I need the following fonts
that are not a part of the standard Courier:

* 12 pitch (12 cpi) Elite

* Italics

The HP Elite Prestige Cartridge provides the above and costs about $71.

I am considering using soft fonts instead.  I believe that I must buy
the disks. Do the disks that came with Deskjet have soft fonts?  Are there any
public domain soft fonts available?  Do I need 256K or will just one
128K RAM cartridge do (about $85)?

Wordperfect does not give me the SOFT FONTS menu when I go into
Printer->Edit->Cartridge and Soft Fonts.  Does this mean that I need
a different copy of 5.0? (My version doesn't support Soft Fonts on the
Deskjet.)


Thanks in advance for any comments and recommendations.
