Fascinating stories. Joe, a good friend at Apple invented TrueType (one of his eighteen or nineteen patents at Apple related to the technology of typography in the digital world). We had lunch just this past Saturday. He retired about a decade ago, sat around for two years, realized he was bored, and went back to work at a company that designs and develops font and typographic tools (name escapes me). Still doing what he loves. -- Godfrey godfreydigiorgi.posterous.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
