There are lots of shareware fonts that are almost identical to some of
the expensive commercial fonts.  Some of them, you would have to study
under a magnifying glass to detect the differences.  They might have a
similar name or it might be completely different and off the wall.
And it goes without saying that the commercial ones are a little more
"perfect" than the shareware ones and you normally get all the complete
character set with control characters.  But how many of those fancy
commercial font companies release their font in the Geos format?
