Actually I don't have CrossMac. I'm looking into other options, ranging
from contacting those I know here better at dealing with Macs than I am
to contacting the original guy who handed me the disk and making sure
everything is in order. BTW, I looked at the disk and while there is a
roughly 58K _resource_ fork, the actual file lists at 0. Did he forget
to give me the actual font?
