Hi Performers,

I've decided that I need to use pfFont, pfText and pfString for the
first time. Having read the man pages, searched the archives etc I
have come to the conclusion that I need fonts as .mf (and possibly
.of) files.

I gather that fonttools from the developers toolbox CD will let me
convert adobe type 1 fonts into these formats. My problem is we don't
have the developers toolbox CD (Looks like I need to try to buy it,
anybody know how much it is?).

In the mean time, I specifically need the Avant Garde font, as
available in showcase, as a Performer font. Has anyone got this
already/know of somewhere to get it/be kind enough to generate the .mf
& .of files for it?

Are there any other font loaders available?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards.

Mark.
