Zona,
I believe you will need fonts made for your specific machine type.
What filetype does your machine read in????
.dst .cnd .exp etc.............
This is a list of digitizing companies that also sell fonts:
Dakota Collectibles 800-331-3160 or www.dakotacollectibles.com
OESD 800-580-8885 or www.oesd.com
1st Impressions 800-423-0078 or www.1stimpressionsdesigns.com
You might check with your local sewing shop that sells brother machines and ask them about fonts and then also look for them on the internet.
hth,

I did a google and found this link http://www.embroiderysa.co.za/astitchahalf/fontmania5.html
I don't know anything about them, but you could do a google and see if there is anything else out there.
I have a program that I can create lettering from most true-type fonts, but I don't own the Bailey Script font.

Thanks everybody, you've given me some different sources to try. The problem seems to be in finding the Bailey Script. (oh, I can open all but .art files and resave to my pes format). Thanks again

.art files are a creation of AOL. Not sure if they still do it but they used to convert any jpg or bmp file emailed or downloaded through AOL to their own .art format.
Many programs can't import them. But they will open in Internet Explorer. Just drag the file to the address bar.
You can then select "save as" and select .bmp from the pull down menu on the "type" line. It will then open in anything that can open a .bmp file.
The compression was greater than other types so often they are not of the best quality.
