Hi Marius,

this is very cool, indeed! I've produced a sample file
using your patch which contains about two dozen new
fonts:

They are:

AmericanTypewriter
AmericanTypewriterBold
AmericanTypewriterCondensed
AmericanTypewriterCondensedBold
AmericanTypewriterCondensedLight
AmericanTypewriterLight
Baskerville
BaskervilleBold
BaskervilleBoldItalic
BaskervilleItalic
BaskervilleSemiBold

BigCaslonMedium
Copperplate
CopperplateBold

FuturaCondensedExtraBold
FuturaCondensedMedium

FuturaMediumItalic
GillSans
GillSansBold
GillSansBoldItalic
GillSansItalic
GillSansLight
GillSansLightItalic
Herculanum
MarkerFeltThin
MarkerFeltWide
OptimaBold
OptimaBoldItalic
OptimaExtraBlack
OptimaItalic
OptimaRegular
Papyrus
Zapfino

There are only two left where I still get a traceback,
which I can send you as usual if you like. One is some
"HelveticaNeue" family and one is "Didot".

There are even more fonts on an OS X box, but they are 
in some other format that I don't know yet how to con-
vert.

I guess Just will also be interested in this...

Regards and thanks,

Dinu
