The fee for this typeface is $15 as is, check or money order(preferred).  
Or send $20 and a disk and a list of the sizes of the bitmaps you would like  
to have and I will try to oblige (within reason...like, don't ask for 127  
point,etc...).  Also, I can include (and probably will anyway) varying spaces 
 
to help you set your own type.  I like very close spacing, but if you like to 
 
spread out your type, then this will be available from within the font  
itself.  This capability will be for those people who don't have all the  
fancy new software that will do manual kerning, etc. (available only to  
registered owners). [proposed spacing - units based on selected point size -  
1,1/2,1/4,1/8,1/16,1/32,1/64 and maybe smaller]  
  
Hello Font Lover,  
  
Previously, I had become very discouraged by distributing my work on  
CompuServe.  A couple of bad experiences made it difficult for me to  
continue.  However, recently I have received some recognition (Thank you  
Richard Eckhardt), and it has made me rethink my position.  
  
The economy is bad in Louisiana and I am not doing well.  You may have  
noticed the address change.  I cannot afford the time on CompuServe except  
for uploading.  Also, my troubles are your gain for neither can I afford to  
do any other kind of marketing for my work other than ShareWare (they would  
cost at least twice as much or more).  And just having me "sit on these  
faces" (pun intended) is not doing any good for myself or anyone else.  
  
My first uploads to CompuServe were rather primitive attempts.  I think  
now you will find that I am capable of good - excellent quality alter-  
natives to the "higher priced spreads".  
  
I will assume you know what to do with this typeface.  
   (use Font/DA Mover 3.2 or higher, don't let Font/DA Mover change the  
    font id, etc...)  
            .........if you don't know how to work these, call!!! (not  
collect)  
            .........if you can't call, write (like I said, I can't afford  
CIS)  
  
There is only one size bitmap with this typeface (I'm trying to keep my long  
distance and your download charges to a minimum).  And there is a good chance 
 
that it is not very clean (some of them are however, and even print fairly  
well on ImageWriter - besides, LaserWriter doesn't care what the bitmaps look 
 
like - you can use geneva first, then switch to this face before printing).   
It will however, automatically download to any PostScript Device i.e.  
LaserWriter, Linotronic, or any of the new PostScript printers that are  
accessed by AppleTalk.  (Versions of this typeface can be prepared for manual 
 
downloading as a text only file for non-Macintosh computers if the need  
should arise.)  
  
If you should happen to investigate any of the other typefaces I've uploaded  
you will probably discover that this is a form letter tacked on to every one  
of them.  You can skip reading the others, however, the ShareWare fee  
remains.  
  
  
                          PLEASE PAY ME...  
  
                                  Thank you.  
  
P.S. If you are curious as to what happened to Calligraphic, I had to shelve  
it.  It doesn't work with the newer LaserWriter software.  The new  
Fontographer software was supposed to fix the problems.  The recompiled  
Calligraphic worked with the new LW software but the decorative letters don't 
 
print properly (they turn out with black letters on the background, and they  
are supposed to be white - I haven't been able to fix it - maybe with the  
next release of Fontographer).  Furthermore, it would only work if  
ZapfChancery was available, which leaves out regular LW users.
