TrueType: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/25132984/

Click "Download to Desktop" under the thumbnail.

TrueType for Windows and possibly Mac. Type-1 for, apparantly, nothing.

Edit: Thanks for the ttf, Syn!

Windows uses TrueType. The font is a Type-1. The difference is primarily business politics and Type-1 is considered superior while TrueType is more popular.

Some Windows boxes will take it (I've heard NT will install Type-1s), others won't.

I'll go looking for a decent font converter. Sorry for the inconvenience. :(

That's the same thing I got.  Usually you can right click a font file and get an install option.

From here, it seems complete. (Though I don't have a truetype viewer that'll let me check the glyphs that weren't in the type-1's encoding.)

Thanks, and let me guess: you used that terrific program that I wanted but didn't download because I'd first have to install cygwin which would take weeks on dialup only to find out that I don't have the hard drive capacity...)

Good guess.

It was a total pain in the arse and took me three attempts to get it installed.

Weird to see X running under XP. ;)

If that's the touhgest decision you have to make today, I say spend a few minutes and download it.  There's a lot of good stuff in there.
