Hi TeXers I apologise if this is in the supplementary info; I don't have a copy at the moment and I need this yesterday. I am looking for a non-proportional font of the IBM PC character set, including the line drawing characters. I have a whole bunch of text screen dumps that I need to make into figures, and this seems like the best approach. Does anyone know if/where such a font is available, or have other suggestions about how to do these figures? BTW, I did try using xterm, xwd and xpri; I also tried xwd2pnm and pnm2ps. I found that the one case produced small files but that they were trash, while the other case produced files over 1Mb in size each time (a pixel image). I want a solution that (i) works (ii) without creating huge files.
