ReliefDeco is a Type 1, ATM-compatible PostScript font AND a TrueType font. To install ReliefDeco, follow the usual procedure. ReliefDeco was created in Fontographer version 3.2, and the TrueType version converted by Font Monger from Ares software. I don't have True Type installed, so I can't vouch for the TrueType version and make no warranties, expressed or implied blah blah blah.
ReliefDeco is a caps and numbers font, no punctuation; lower-case letters are identical to upper-case letters. It is generously kerned. The letter images are of a heavy slab serif typeface, but of the shadows only, making it a "kind of cool" (sic) display font, unsuitable for text applications, and not so good looking below 18 points.
I've resurrected a cuteness from the early days of type on the Macintosh -- the putting of a signature character (a kind of dingbat), unrelated to the font, on the shift-option-tilde key (if you don't know what I mean, look at the same key on all the different sizes of the Geneva font supplied by Apple). In this font the signature character is of Boris Badenov from the Bullwinkle Show. I challenge other shareware font makers to follow this example and include a "really neat" dingbat character in the shift-option-tilde characters of your fonts. You want to be cool, right?

Another display of font-altruism from the decidedly abnormal folks at Insect Bytes.
