ANDESITE (TrueType) Version 2.1.0(7/8/91)Copyright 1991 James M. Harris.
All rights reserved.IMPORTANT NOTE: This version fixes all printing
problems and postscript errors associated with imagesetter output.
ANDESITE is a beautiful TrueType display typeface based on Plaza (formerly
called Playboy). This font has uppercase characters, numerals, and
punctuation only. There are numerous alternate swash characters for most
of the characters (11 characters have two alternates). It was created
entirely with Letraset FontStudio 2.0 (release version). There are now
also over 300 kerning pairs. ALTERNATE CHARACTERS-ANDESITE includes many
alternate capitals, and since there is no lowercase character set, I used
the uppercase equivalent for alternates, and the lowercase equivalent for
primary caps. Example: Pressing Shift-A will get you the swash character,
while simply pressing ╥a╙ will get you the primary character. The only
character that doesn't have an alternate is the letter O. Besides these
alternates, several characters have a second alternate as follows:
╥A╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift A╙╥B╙ second alternate, press
╥option-shift B╙╥D╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift D╙╥E╙ second
alternate, press ╥option-shift E╙╥F╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift
F╙╥H╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift H╙╥K╙ second alternate, press
╥option-shift K╙╥M╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift M╙╥O╙ second
alternate, press ╥option-shift O╙╥R╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift
R╙╥T╙ second alternate, press ╥option-shift T╙DESIGNSTUDIO AND READY,SET,
GO! USERS:DesignStudio and Ready,Set,Go! may not always display and print
special alternate characters in a FontStudio font. Both page-layout
applications default to the standard Symbol characters if the upper
register of ASCII characters is mapped differently from the standard font
map.The solution (using Apple's ResEdit utility) is as follows:1. Launch
ResEdit and open a copy of the DesignStudio (or RSG) application (Never
work on the original!).2. Locate the STR# resource and open it.3. Open
STR# 556.4. Click on the last row of asterisks in the lower left of the
window. A rectangle will appear around the asterisks.5. Select NEW (or
Insert New Field(s) if you are using ResEdit 2.0 or later) from the File
menu and then click the pointer in the new font name entry area that
appears and type the unique font name the unique font name in this area.
You must enter the unique font name exactly. Character for character,
spelling, correct upper and lowercase usage, and spacing between words
is crucial.6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 (always clicking on the current last
row of asterisks) for each font for which you need the special (option or
option-shift) characters properly displayed and printed.7. When you are
done adding all the font names to the program, choose Quit from the File
menu and then click Yes to save the changes.DesignStudio (or RSG) should
now properly display and print the special characters for each font whose
name you've added to the program using this procedure.THIS FONT IS
