My Missing Font

Hello everyone...

I recently upgraded to XPpro from Win98, an made it a point to back up all my miscellaneous fonts.

But to my surprise, when I installed XPpro, it did not come with the Gill Sans, Bernard MT Condensed, Baskerville Old Face font(s) which I use quite often.

I'm reluctant pay $20 bucks a pop for the above font(s) I'm suppose to have. It came with Win98....

Does anyone know where I can download this font free of charge or can someone send it to my via C:\Windows\Fonts....

Any advice or generosity is appreciated
Regards
Fess

The other option is to just throw the windows 98 disc in, cancel an install and browse the disc.

Sometime those fonts are packaged with MS Office, and not just windows. As I understand, Windows, just by itself, having no innate word processing program (Aside from wordpad) does not offer the typical plethora of fonts so commonly taken for granted. Office, on the other hand, does offer these fonts usually.
