- Saint Francis is a TrueType version of Apple Computer’s
- venerable San Francisco font. It has the full character set that
- San Francisco has, plus some alternate characters (try Option e,
- Option g, and Option W), and some visual puns that I included for
- my own amusement. It should print out on any Mac that either
- has the TrueType INIT installed or System 7 running.
-
-
- Saint Francis is free for non-commercial applications. If you
- feel compelled to send money you can, but you are under no
- obligation to do so. I am more interested in comments about
- this font. You may contact me at my Compuserve address of
- 73627,3612 or at my mail address:

-
- You may freely give away this font to your friends or upload it
- to your favorite bulletin board. I encourage you to do this.
- Please keep this Read Me file with it if you do distribute it. If
- you are a commercial enterprise selling disks of shareware and
- freeware, you may not distribute this font without my
- permission. If you sell it, you should send the money to me.

- Saint Francis TrueType was converted from the original
- Fonotographer Type 1 PostScript by Metamorphosis Professional
- 2.0 and is offered as is. I will not accept responsibility if it
- doesn’t work for you or if you use it in an important report and
- your boss hates it and fires you.

- Installation Instructions For Novices
-
-
- If you’ve never installed a TrueType font before, don’t worry,
- it’s pretty easy. You do have the TrueType INIT installed or are
- running System 7, aren’t you? Ok, then all you have to do is one
- thing.
-
-
- 1. Install the Saint Francis.suit file into your System file, using
- Apple’s Font/DA mover version 4.1 or later (beta versions of 3.9
- seem to work OK also). If this doesn’t make any sense to you,
- then you are either a beginner or Dan Quayle. In either case you
- should read the documentation that came with your TrueType
- INIT, concentrating on the stuff about installing fonts and the
- Font/DA mover. If you have Suitcase II 1.2.9 or MasterJuggler
- 1.5.1, install SaintFrancis.suit using the appropriate normal
- method for installing a bitmap font. If you’re running System 7,
- make sure you have Suitcase II 1.2.9 or later.
-
-
- That’s it. You’re ready to use Saint Francis in your favorite
- word processor, drawing program, or other program that uses
- fonts. (If you are using Microsoft Word™ 3.0x or earlier, you
- will have to do some additional things to get Saint Francis to
- appear in the FONT menu; consult your documentation.) Be
- advised that your output will look much better that it does on
- screen; I didn’t bother doing much editing of the screen fonts.
- Even though there are only two sizes of screen fonts, you can
- print Saint Francis out at any size that your software supports.
-
-
- If you have Suitcase I™ or Master Juggler™, you probably aren’t
- really a novice, but just in case - all you have to do is make
- sure the SaintFrancis.suit file is properly opened by one or the
- other of these programs. If you don’t have either of these
- programs and use a lot of fonts or DAs then you should have one
- of them. I have Suitcase II™ and recommend it highly, but I’m
- given to understand that Master Juggler™ is just as good -
- indeed, some people prefer it. However, if you use Compuserve,
- you can contact Steve Brecher (the author or Suitcase II) at any
- time.

-
- Hey, you already know to install a bitmap font, right? What can
- I tell you that you don’t already know? Get out of here.

- Installation Instructions for People Who Have
- Friends With PCs
-
-
- Your friend must have Windows 3.1 installed. If so, he/she
- probably knows how to install a TrueType font. You can copy the
- SAF_____.TTF file to a PC disk using the default transfer to
- MSDOS in Apple File Exchange. Give your friend the disk and
- wish him/her good luck.
