    Thanks for your help and all, but it looks like I have to pay $22 each for them? Do I?

    Yup. That's how the font designers/foundries/distributors stay in business.



    You may be able to find a freeware font that comes close to what you're looking for, however.

    Try the System Restore disk. Look for a font install package.

    I was on my way to do that. I can't find "font package" or "font install package" (checked box for "ignore case").



    I searched for Font Book, and found these results:



    ...



    Which should I choose??

    "None of the above"







    I don't have a Restore disc set with me, but you should on inspection of the *packages* (not inside them, but at the Finder level, looking for files ending in extension .pkg), find one or more that have to do with just Fonts. I could be wrong on this, but IIRC there is a package for just 'extra' fonts.



    Unless of course those fonts were installed by an app, demo or otherwise, in which case they won't be in a package.



    Have you considered trying other fonts? I hear Courier is nice this year...

    They come with Office 2004. Maybe they were installed with the Office 2004 Trial so look for that on your installer disc.



    Or you can download them here:
