Bruno,

Nice suggestion, but I don't see this as a replacement, but just another
option. However...

Fourier, as deployed, makes fairly heavy use of VF files, and also relies
on Utopia for its more normal characters. As Utopia is from Adobe, I
can't imagine the conversion issue is quite as straightforward...

Really? I'd never heard that, with Fourier/Utopia intended as a Lucida
"lookalike"...
