Strictly fonts from well known foundrys: Adobe Font Bureau Bitstream Agfa Monotype ITC Linotype DaltonMaag Galapagos Design URW++ B&H Berthold Types This is not a comprehensive list, moreover, this only covers foundrys with Western coverage. I have been lucky to collect fonts from applications over the years. If you have any recent version of Corel Draw, this includes a pretty full collection of over 1000 faces in both TT and Type 1 format. This is probably the best place to get a reasonably priced collection of high quality fonts suitable for postscript and commercial printing. This collection is licensed by Corel from Bitstream. If Corel Draw just came with these fonts, it would be worth the price. On the other side is the Adobe Type Collection which runs around 5000 USD. The most interesting fonts which I find are open sourced or freely licensed are specialty fonts like Isabella, http://www.thibault.org/fonts/isabella/ and Gentium a fairly full coverage Unicode font: http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=Gentium > > Try disabling this entire directory in your font paths and restart > > Scribus. > > That worked.
