I liked to use the Adobe Palatino (also because they're built in PS
printers), 
but my try to convert the MacOS fonts to Linux/Windows pfbs failed
(wrong enc?),
so I do now use the URW Palladio -- it's free, and the quality seems ok. 

I'd suggest you set preferences to the free URW PS fonts that come also
with Ghostscript.
Ehm, if the fonts are under the GPL (and not GPLL) -- must I put all
TeX "source code" that uses them under GPL? What abaout the printed
products?

BTW:
I was surprised not to find TeX files for Berkeley (pby) on CTAN.
Seems I must make it myself. (Berkeley OS italic is my "corporate font").
