I meant to mention my method for getting text for covers. While I have a range of installed fonts, I don't always have one that matches the style of an old cover. (Or is distinct ebough for a new cover.)

Most on-line font sellers offer previews of fonts with arbitrary text in a range of sizes. Since we're not going for high resolution images of fonts, just screen resolution, these previews are exactly what's needed for the covers, and can be copied with screen capture software.

Good sites use are http://www.myfonts.com/ and http://www.identifont.com/
