Otherwise: The L+ and LW NT(X) has: Times(R,B,I,BI), Helvetica(R,B,O,BO), Courier and Symbol New Century Schoolbook(R,B,I,BI) Palatino(R,B,I,BI) Avant Garde (R,O,B,BO) Zapf Chancery (Medium) Zapf Dingbats(R,I) Bookman (R,B,I,BI) Helvetica Narrow (R,B,O,BO) (*R=Roman, I=Italic, O=Oblique, B=Bold) One LW+ I have used also had the font Seattle built in, although I don't know why.
