Hail Rob!
For me the question is whether the o-tail/hooked-o
is in the font. I've used the OE-times font for several
years now, as well as an OE-courier font. I think
those are the fonts that were drawn up by Lucille Ball
at the Georgetown university. But I am not sure any more,
since the fonts I am now using are called "ONTimes" and
"ONCourier" in the fonts chooser. I don't know if
these are names that I myself gave to the fonts for my
own use, or whether these were actually the names they had
when I found them on the web.
I also have a Mac font called ISO-8859-1, which also comes in
handy some times, since it is a "pure" ISO font, and thus
allows error free communication with unix machines.
The problem with Windows, is that their char table is not
pure ISO, since they have added a bunch of Windows specific
characters and placed them in the columns where pure ISO
is empty. But admittedly, a lot of printers also use the
Windows fonts, and so they aren't so bad. (it is called
ECMA in the hp printers manuals - so if you have a Laser Jet,
you'll find good font tables that can be used with
<Aly> + <Number> in the printer manual appendixes)
The ONCourier and ON Times fonts I use all the time.
I have them installed in all my wordprocessors, netbrowsers,
emailprograms, printers, etc) They work just like normal
Courier and Times Roman, except that they *also* give you
edh and thorn. The problem with the first fonts that came
of this type, was that they didn't work very well on a 600 dpi
printer. But the fonts I have now come in complete suitcase
files that include hi res postcript instructions for the Laser Jet.

Nope, Telia is a Swedish company, but the web page was
Norwegian. (erratum)
