  On http://netbox.pl/~marcinj/hrw/mplayer-pl-font.tar.bz2 you can grab
fonts which I use for polish subtitles. They are old, made by someone from
Poland (didn't remember who) but works great for me for subtitles encoded
in cp1250 or iso8859-2.

  PS. I discovered that my fonts are too old - I don't even have "$" in
them ;) (some kind of pre-alpha by Arpi).

    First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you.
