Kari,
I would like to add that the main difference of PCL and PS solutions
is the availability of the linedraw characters. With PCL Courier you
can print those, whereas PS does not have them, only foreign
characters of the upper ASCII range. If you need true CP 437
support, PCL is the way to go.
Also, more subjectively, the PCL Courier is superior, with thicker
strokes that make it easier to read. On the other hand, PS
NewCenturySchlBk is an excellent general-purpose proportional font,
wonderfully clear and readable. Speedo ClassicalGarmnd is elegant but
not quite as readable, IMO.
