     Get a CDRom or access to a machine that has one. Get Typesmith or
something else that will convert fonts (I use Pro Page). There are LOTS of
Postscript font collections on CDRom for dirt cheap. I preview them on a
Mac and write the ones I need to a IBMPC disk for transport to the Amiga.
Using this method I have access to over 500 fonts (my roomate collects
them) and a minimum of hassles. Be sure to write them as an IBM type 1
font as Imagine recognises no others.
