> it could be that COURBD is similar

Thanks, John, for posting Courier.ttf. COURBD is actually better for
me -- and it supports PCL printing. I've landed on #f6eadf as the
"ivory" a/k/a "wedding invitaton" background color of choice at home,
where I work, in the wee hours, in a crepuscular ambience that the
Addams clan would appreciate. I've set the same background color in
SumatraPDF, which makes for a satisfying synergy.

One thing about the Courier font family, though: it works exceedingly
well with dark type against a light background but is, in my
experience, unsatisfactory with light type against a dark background
(e.g., my cream/midnight blue color scheme). A subjective call, of
course. When it comes to screen colors, much depends on ambient light
and beauty is in the eye of the user.
