The "Relief Pak" contained herein consists of three fonts drawn in relief:
WhatARelief, ReliefInReverse, and RoundedRelief. They were drawn in response
to a user's request for a "sans serif relief font." WhatARelief and
ReliefInReverse use the same lettershapes -- a squarish sans serif relief
alphabet. ReliefInReverse prints a black strip with white shadows, or the
"negative" of WhatARelief. RoundedRelief is a rounder, more condensed relief
font.By the way, "Relief" in this case means rather bold letterforms whose outlines
have been taken away to reveal only the shadow, or 3-D portion that was "behind."
In both of these fonts, the shadow is drawn below and to the left of the now
omitted original letters. Obviously, such a font is for special display purposes
only.All three of the fonts in the ReliefPak are fairly complete, although there are
no diacritics. RoundedRelief lacks the parentheses that can be found in the
other two fonts.The three fonts in the ReliefPak are copyright (c) 1992 by David Rakowski. All
Rights Reserved. They were uploaded to Compuserve, GEnie and America Online
originally by the font author and Eileen Wharmby. The purpose of making the
fonts available was to help the funding of Columbia Composers, which presents
public performances of music written by Columbia University students. Their
expenses include hall rental, payments to performers and recording costs. If
you like, keep or use any of the fonts in the ReliefPak, please consider making
a shareware payment in the form of a donation to Columbia Composers in the
amount of $4.99 or greater. Make your check out to Columbia University and
mail it to Cynthia Lemiesz, Music Department, 703 Dodge, Columbia University,
New York, NY 10027. With your check you might want to enclose a note reading
"How do YOU spell relief? I forgot. The pickles forgot their raincoats, so we
had to substitute snow where we had wanted bathroom tile. Thank you."You may keep copies of the ReliefPak indefinitely and you may give copies to
your friends, providing you give them ALL the files originally included in this
archive, including the ReadMe that you are reading. User groups and nonprofit
organizations may include the ReliefPak on their nominal charge disks with the
same provisos. For-profit organizations such as public domain/shareware outlets
are specifically prohibited from including any of the ReliefPak fonts on their
disks, whether or not they charge money.
The ReliefPak comes to you from Insect Bytes just because we think it's a pretty
neat thing to do.
