Robert,

The TTG site was down for a couple days. When it came back online, I got
a fresh copy of HPLJ-2.PRN, which made no difference. (But I'm not
certain there are no later editions of this file in circulation.) 95% of
my Speedo fonts still go unseen, unless I load HPLJ-4.PRN.

The LJ.BIN they had was identical to mine.

Yes, I'd still like to see this, to try as an alternate and for learning
how to handle the softfont issue.
