To put on the wish list:

I would like to see a NewYork 36 point and a ComicBold 24 point font added
to the standard release image so that I can use Squeak for presentations
right out of the box - That would be a nice convenience.

However the Accufont solution and Andreas Raab's solution are fine.


Thanks to all who contributed to this font issues in the past. This is
really important to make Squeak usable in certain application areas.
