Default Free Fonts

And here I thought that 14 messages on a "free fonts" question
would result in lots of free font information. sigh.

Sorry, JoAnn. I must correct your Latin.

Virus, in Latin, is a masculine noun, and thus becomes viri (single "i"
ending) in plural. For it to have double "i" plural, it would need to have
the singular form "--ius", as in "radius".

However, in English, the "--es" plural ending should be used - thus viruses.
Similarly, a university or college may have a number of campuses rather than
campi and certainly never campii.

Other than that, your advice is, as always, exemplary!

Patricius .... errrr .... Paddy
