 Well I loaded a lot of the fonts on Aminet over to the system I use at work,
 and spent a good part of last night moving them home. Some had a vector
 missing error, some would not even be seen in the requester, and some worked
 simply great. I was dissapointed, but the price was right. I unarc them at
 work and pull only the .pfb file home copy it to my PSFONTS directory and
 try it while the next one was coming over. Can't complain the price was right.
 In the very near future I plan to get TypeSmith so that may help. I found I
 could not get any fonts to show in the requester until I had at least three
 loaded into the directory. This might have been I problem with the fonts
 or Imagine. I did not care enough to track it down(remember some fonts never
 showed, could have been the first few were like this). But once I rendered
 my first word "Imagine" I was hooked. really turned out great. I find 
 "Imagine" makes a good test case because of the mix of letters. Of course
 I kept the object Test.iob in ram so nothing was saved, but it is so easy
 to do I can't see bothering to save text objects unless they are part of
 a real project. Good job Impulse!
