Hi All

I've just done a successful install of the Lucida fonts, purchased from 
Y&Y, and following Gary Gray's instructions. It turns out that it is not 
necessary to do any transforming of uppercase to lowercase. They work 
either way.

The next question though is whether it is really necessary to convert 
.pfa files to .pfb files since the latter are just packed versions of 
the former and they need to be unpacked anyway every time they are sent 
to the printer. (If .pfb files are really needed them it seems like a 
mistake.)
