I've tried it on my PC, and it doesn't look right to me. Matter of
fact, I just pulled up Word and tried it with all the variations of
Eurostile that I have, and they don't even look close. Maybe I don't
have the right variation of the Eurostile font, though.

The header graphic for the PC web site was made with the Bitstream
font, and to me, it looks dead on. I've been told there are a couple
of minor variations from the original in some of the characters, but
I can't remember what they were. They were discussed here on the list
a number of months ago, but I'm too lazy to go look through my archive
right now because I was out chasing trains all day and I'm about ready
to hit the sack... And yes, it was on former Penn Central terrirory.
:-)

I'll look tomorrow and see if I can find them.

Later,
