BUT: the fonts i'm interested in have to work with openoffice. first, i'm looking for a font that is apropos for long manscripts. printed. books rather than newspapers or other ink+paper material. to me, GEorgia works quite nicely for my book "JOURNEY." but am wondering if there is such a thing as a semi-bold [or darker than usual regular] typeface. i hope you're all sitting down now; i'm ready to pay for this font. --hope nodybody fell over :) thanks in advance, gary, who is almost done with his final copyedit. -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.83a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.org 99 97/100% Guaranteed Novel
