Short:        Best sans serif fonts, in .pfb format
Architecture: generic

This is a collection of fonts in Adobe Postscript (.pfb) format.  The Adobe
font format is superior to the Compugraphic Intellifont format, and of this
collection, not all fonts exist as Compugraphic equivalents.  So, if
possible, use the Adobe version.  Programs like PageStream, FinalWriter and
TypeSmith directly understand Adobe fonts (load the .pfb files), and using
util/libs/type1beta9.lha (found on Aminet Set 2 Disk b) you can use
Postscript fonts in any program that understands Amiga fonts, because they 
are converted on the fly.

All fonts in this collection have hints. These are instructions how to
make the fonts look good at low resolutions. However not all programs
make use of them.

In the archive pix/illu/AminetPFonts.lha you find a set of images 
displaying all fonts of the whole font collection. Also, each archives
contains an archive index image and an image for each font.
