<DIV>>> That would be bad.<BR>><BR>>I think "bad" qualifies as the
understatement of the century. More<BR>>like "horrible, horrendous,

<DIV>Creating a site which shows very large rasterized versions of
each glyph of all fonts regardless of copyright status could have uses
which are both beneficial to the common good such as enabling a site like OFLB
to realize the latest upload puts a copyrighted font on their hands, but of
course some dastardly person could trace the outlines from copyrighted fonts to
create a cloned font. Doing that would also be a rather large project which
would require many "librarians". I think it would be a worthwhile and legal to
do project, but on the other hand, it would have to somehow keep
people from countries where typefaces are copyrightable from visiting
the site(not really possible). Also, there is this little teensy thing
called ethics which gnaws at me while thinking about this idea. </DIV>
