Does anyone know the relation between the point size (as listed
by FONTZ) and the number I use to a vst_height() call ? Does
the value I put in the point size field in the font effect scaling ?
I want to have point sizes for each rez device (e.g. laser,24pin,9pin),
and have the vst_height() call use the same number (or should I be using
vst_point()?), so what should I put in the font header ?

Also, does anyone have code (VDI based I suppose) for generating smooth
curves other than an elliptical arc, that GDOS will accept for output ?

Yours in GDOS land,
Mike
