What are all these fonts?  From reading the thread, I got the impression 
that there was just *one* libertine font. What is the one
like Goudy? (sp?) What is the one that looks like Times?
I don't even know what the various "book" fonts are. Libertine was
supposed to be such a wonderful thing--well which one is the wonderful 
one? Which one comes closest to the font that most modern fiction is 
published in? (Whatever that's called.) Is there a tutorial about these
wonderful fonts someplace?

Whatever is the "wonderful" one, I'll try it and see if is appeals to
me over just everyday Times-Roman.

Thanx--doug
