Hi Loris;

I while back I created a whole bunch of font sets for PIL because I was
having the same problems.  One of the other users (Piers Lauder) kindly
provided FTP space for them, as they're quite large (even when zipped).

They're available at the following address if you'd like to download
"pre-PIL-ified" fonts.
