I did check CTAN CD sets from 1999, 2000, and 2001. In 1999 these files were part off PSNFSS, which was still maintained by Sebastion Rahtz at that time. They could be found in fonts/psfonts/adobe/courier.zip, fonts/psfonts/lw35nfss.zip, macros/latex/required/psnfss/lw35nfss.zip. No license statement in the accompanying README files etc. :-( In 2000 Walter took aver maintaining PSNFSS and these files could no longer be found in macros/latex/required/psnfss/lw35nfss.zip. They were still in the other two places. In 2001, fonts/psfonts/lw35nfss.zip had disappeared, but those files could still be found in fonts/psfonts/adobe/courier.zip. Meanwhile that file is gone, too, together with the entire fonts/psfonts/adobe directory. So while it shouldn't be a problem to get a proper license statement for these files from Sebastian, these files seem to only exist in teTeX and TeX Live. I still don't know, if they are used anywhere. cheerio ralf
