Fonts for applications on personal iris

Iam writing an application using the graphics library.
I would l9ike my custom menus and titles to look like the menubars
on the 4-sight window (grey, with
an italicised font).
The defrasterfont in the graphics library seems to be a way to create fonts
to look the way I want, however defining my own fonts (to look like
the ones used by 4-sight) would be terribly tedious and probably useless
because my fonts would look awful.

So I was wondering if anyone has defined their own fonts for the iris, and
would let me have the code that defines them.
Is there standard font definitions allready out there so that
I may pick and choose what my letters drawn by the
graphics library routines will look like?

Iam running on a personal iris.

Thanks, Mike Papper.
