>I am beginning with Scribus.

Welcome!

>Few days ago I created a document with Scribus on a Mac based machine. I
>use the Bitstream and Utopia fonts because of indications on the Scribus
>help.
>
>I have now a Windows based machine with a large screen and I install
>Scirbus for windows. All works fine. Nevertheless, I have a problem of
>fonts and I am not keen with this problem.
>
>Bitstream Charter and Utopia fonts are not provided on windows systems.
>I try to find fonts files on the  web. I only find  *.pfa files
>(provided with gs or *Nix systems).
>Windows XP seems not to recognize theses.
>
>How should I do to use/install theses fonts. Where can I find them (I
>understand they are in public domain now)..
