I uploaded three zip files to cica.cica.indiana.edu, that contain
fonts that can be used with ATM. The guy that created them wrote a
program for the MAC that converts mac fonts to a format acceptable to
ATM. I have a few more fonts that he's done. I'll upload them soon.
The three files are:
arc13p.zip
blkcha.zip
sntfra.zip
There are instructions in each zip file that tell you how to install
the fonts. I had my windows apps using a Postscript printer
connected to FILE and was able to see the new fonts in applications
like WFW and Write by:
a) following the guy's installation instructions
b) selecting the printer (again) while in the app.
I haven't tried to print to a file with this setup though.
This week I finally got hooked up to an Appletalk network. Now I
can't get the fonts downloaded to my Apple Laserwrite dispite his
instructions about modifying the "softfont = " area of the win.ini
file after you've used ATM to install his fonts. When I boot up a
windows app, I get a message saying that "Font XYZ not found on
printer" and the fonts no longer appear in the WFW fonts list.
If anyone figure out how to really get this working, plz post a "how
to". Something is missing from the instructions in the files.
thanks
