I plead guilty to a mixed memory. There is a keycap-type font offered
by the Image Club that is called QWERTY. The sample I saw was a
PostScript font, but IC usually sells Type 1 and TrueType versions of
their fonts. Phone number is 800-661-9410.
Corel also offers a font like this called Key Stroke. I got it in a CD
with CorelDraw and then again with XARA; it might be a font that they
offer on all their product CDs . Usually their fonts come in both Type
1 and TrueType and you can install the one you want on your hard drive.
Happy fonting...Peggy Schillinger
