Hi

The garamond 8pt is not actually useable -- it is outright missing some
chars (lower case b,c, i, upper case H, P T) and only has two or three
instances for other chars (ie, there is only one lower case "i" in the case)

Len -- there are several unopened packages of type addressed to you in the
office.   I'm afraid I wasn't paying too much attention to this list while
I was thesing, and now I can't find the messages about them in  my
archives. Do you want help inspecting and sorting the type in those
packages? And do we have cases to sort the type into?
