- Does anyone know if the typefaces in the Microsoft TrueType Font Packs contain

- versions of the Lucida files which have kerning info?

- The TT fonts that came with Win 3.1 do have kerning pairs in the four styles
- of `Arial', and the four styles of `Times'. `Symbol', `Wingding', and
- `Courier' do not, obviously.
