Okay, I get the message: there are quite a few frustrated would-be font
users out there. I see it as being something that someone can understand
(and explain) fairly well in the abstract, but the details throw up
distribution-specific problems. 

So, because it's the only area I can hope to fix, are there any Mac users
out there (gwTeX) that are (still) frustrated with fonts in the way that
Rob and Ciro are?

For those Mac users, is it a matter of using pre-installed fonts
(Palatino, Helvetica, etc.), or installing your own fonts that is so
frustrating?
