    The Apple Font Pack contains:

    * 25 new Apple fonts, all from leading type foundries. These are listed below.

    * 18 of the fonts Apple has been shipping with the LaserWriter and StyleWriter printers.

    * The Apple LaserWriter Driver and LaserWriter Font Utility software for using the fonts with Apple and third-party PostScript laser printers.

    The Apple Font Pack, added to the 21 fonts that come with System 7, brings Apple's font offering for the Macintosh computer to 64.


    Enhanced LaserWriter Printers
    -----------------------------
    The 25 new fonts will also be added to the library of fonts included with Apple's network printers: the LaserWriter IIf, LaserWriter IIg, and Personal LaserWriter NTR. This boosts the font offering to 64 for customers using any Macintosh computer with these printers.


    Compatibility and Configurations
    --------------------------------
    The Apple Font Pack requires a Macintosh personal computer running System 7. The LaserWriter IIf, LaserWriter IIg, and Personal LaserWriter NTR printer font sets are compatible with Macintosh computers running System 6.0.7 or System 7. Once installed, the fonts are compatible with any Macintosh printer or output device, and with third-party printers.
