I've downloaded all 3 versions of your contribution. But nothing I have on my 9.2.2 system will mount the disk image from any of them.

How do I access the fonts in this collection?

Just found the original instruction manual, which is very detailed and includes charts of hidden characters for every font. I have added it to the download file as a .pdf.
As an aside, it appears "Cape Canaveral" was originally called "Mos Eisley" until the George Lucas lawyers came calling.

Here is a temporary link until admins make the page link work:

My browser doesn't let me download 404 pages.

Clicking the link gives me an XML page with message "The specified key does not exist."

Many pages on the site are like this at the moment. You can get around it by control-clicking or right-clicking and saving the file directly to your computer.

This looks like a nice collection. Unfortunately, the link is broken right now.

I own the floppy. Because there are errors on the media, the files were pulled off the disk manually and transferred to a pre-existing blank .dsk file.
*edit* Re-upped as a .sit file.

Nice screenshot. You have access to this floppy? Um, the upload is ".img"... Any possibility of re-doing this as "Disk Copy 4.2" and then compressing as ".sit", then re-uploading? See forum post from admin, Balrog: "IMPORTANT: Disk Copy for images (RULE: always use DiskCopy 4.2!)".
