I'm confused. I've never heard of TOPAZ before (and we have 1000's of
fonts where I work) so I did an internet search and it appears to be
an Amiga font. Are you an Amiga user Krogg? If so, I don't understand
how you use Netscape and Notepad(or it's replacement as the case may
be)?
I wonder how many other obscure fonts people are using because that,
and the possible multi-platform nature of this group only serves to
increase this "ASCII font-viewing problem".
