David I don't think anyone replied to this. As far as I know, these are the only applications for Mac OS 9 that can use Windows TrueType fonts:
1) WorldText, an editor produced by Apple that requires OS 9.1 or later. 2) SUE (Simple Unicode Editor) http://members.tripod.com/%7Etomaszek/sue.html 3) Pepper, a text editor that runs under both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X 10 http://www.hekkelman.com/pepper.html 4) MLTE Demo, a text editor for OS 9 ttp://www.merzwaren.com/snippets/index.html#mltedemo 5) Possibly jEdit, a Java text editor for programmers, but I cannot get Java to work on my OS 9.2.2 http://www.jedit.org 6) Possibly Simredo, a Java text editor, but I cannot get Java to work http://www4.vc-net.ne.jp/~klivo/sim/simeng.htm Alan Wood http://www.alanwood.net (Unicode, special characters, pesticide names) > -----Original Message----- > From: David J.
