- Check your AWeb fontsettings. It is probably using not the bitmap
- fonts but the outlinefont ones. And loading these costs time. So
- either set the font prefs to eg. helvetica or times or use eg.
- Intellifonts to create bitmap versions of the point sizes you need.
- I'm sure it will speed up your AWeb startup considerably...
-
- Here are my settings:
-
- FONT helvetica.font 13 .
- FOH1 helvetica.font 24 .
- FOH2 helvetica.font 18 .
- FOH3 helvetica.font 15 .B
- FOH4 helvetica.font 13 .B
- FOH5 helvetica.font 11 .
- FOH6 helvetica.font 9 .
- FOCI helvetica.font 13 .I
- FOCO magneto.font 12 .
- FOEM helvetica.font 13 .I
- FOKB magneto.font 12 .I
- FOSA courier.font 13 .
- FOST helvetica.font 13 .B
- FOVA courier.font 13 .I
- FOTT magneto.font 12 .
-
- helvetica is a bitmap font. I think it comes standard with 3.x.
- magneto is a nice font I found on Aminet. And courier is also
- standard from 3.x I believe.
-
- Take care.
