The Sfware utilities allow you to download, rotate, compress, expand, view,
and perform special effects on softfonts. The effects provided include bold,
fill, convert to fixed spacing, halftone, hollow, invert, mirror, outline,
convert to proportional spacing, resize, reverse, shade, shadow, slant,
stripe, tilt, three-d, hollow-three-d, and filled-three-d effects. The
effects can be tailored and customized for any font with various parameters
and shading patterns.
Sfware is distributed in five archive files: SFW11AP1, SFW11AP2, SFW11AD1,
SFW11AD2, and SFW11AEX. The 'P' archives contain the programs and the 'D'
archives contain documentation. The 'EX' archive contains an example of
the special effects that Sfware can produce.
Print the example page from the SFW11AEX archive file (EXAMPLES.PCL or
EXAMPL16.PCL) on your LaserJet printer for a sample of Sfware's effects.
You can print the examples by entering the command
COPY EXAMPLES.PCL /B PRN
at the DOS prompt. You must print the examples page on an HP LaserJet
compatible printer. The example pages are essentially identical. The
EXAMPL16.PCL page uses only 16 fonts. Some LaserJet printers (notably, the
HP LaserJet Series II) can only print sixteen different fonts on any given
page. If your printer has this limitation, EXAMPLES.PCL may not print
correctly.
