I am looking for the font Footlight MT Light or an Adobe match to it.
Has anyone heard of it?

Also, where can I find Olde English font? What is the Adobe match to
this one?

Thanks for your help!!

Re Footlight MT- From the name, the source is Monotype (the MT part).
Possibly you guessed that. Aside from the obvious source, Monotype, itself,
Footlight MT Light is bundled with Office 97 (Valupak, MSFONTS directory)
and Publisher (Fonts directory).

An FTP search turns up hits in Russia, Poland, France and USA mostly from MS
Office installations. (Dangerously assumed from the directory the font is
in.) This seems to imply that their intention is internal use only. But I
digress....

Hope this is useful.

You should be able to get it from Monotype at http://www.monotype.com.
It used to be in at least one of Monotype's bargain packages, so you
might want to check them out.
