If you're lucky, someone already did the implementation. My first place is always the (German) page from Walter Schmidt, the PSNFSS maintainer, who provides packages for a range of common commercial fonts, and the quality of the metrics is very good: http://home.vr-web.de/was/fonts.html Unfortunately, Baker Signet is not included. If you have to implement them yourself, here are some pointers: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instt1font ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/Type1fonts/fontinstallationguide/fontinstallationguide.pdf Hope this helps, Jürgen
