- I'm having trouble getting TrueType fonts from a Macintosh to show up
- on my GS.
-
- I formatted a macintosh disk on my IIgs and brought it to a friend's
- house where he copied some TrueType fonts over to the disk. When I
- put the disk in my machine, the files show up in the finderas an
- "unknown" file type. What gives??
-
- I'm using a GS with system 6.0 and Pointless installed. BTW, my friend
- used Fontmonger to convert some of the fonts to TrueType although I
- don't
- think this should make any difference.
-
- I'm also wondering where I can download TrueType versions of Avant
- Garde,
- Palatino, and Zapf Chancery. GEnie and cco.caltech.edu don't seem to
- have them. Any other good sites for TrueType fonts?
-
- One last question. I downloaded the TrueType version of Times from
- cco.caltech.edu and the file is about 240K. Why so big?
