TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The are free and shareware fonts available on the Internet. Frequently you can find a "clone" of a licensed font being offered as shareware for a fraction of the cost of the original font. I once needed a copy of Frutiger for a special purpose at work but found Frobisher font as a shareware alternative. The fonts were so similar it was difficult to tell them apart. Frobisher cost $12 to license. Frutiger would have cost $129 for a license.

I had problems with fonts being intermittently unavailable on my Windows
system (based on my current printer), and yall said that I need to install
the fonts on my computer rather than relying on the printer to carry them.
Where do I get the fonts? Do they come on a FrameMaker disk? Acrobat disk?
I don't have the installation CDs, so I can't browse them (our IT group
keeps all install CDs).
Many thanks,
Lindsey
