Well, you can use TTF fonts, but not directly.  There is a utility called 
TTF2PCX, which turns a font into a .PCX file containing the characters.  You 
can then use this PCX file as a font in your program as a font.  Check out 
Allegro's site for TTF2PCX, as well as read the Allegro documentation on how 
to use PCX fonts.

Bye!
