- Welcome to TypeSmith 1.01
- -------------------------
-
- The 1.0 to 1.01 upgrade is a maintenance upgrade. Some of the
- problems that have been addressed in the new version are:
-
- - Type 1 fonts are now saved in a format that is compatible with
- the Post PostScript interpreter.
-
- - DR2D imports can now be individually positioned and scaled with
- a picture frame pointer (like `paste').
-
- - Some problems with ARexx commands have been resolved.
-
- - TypeSmith DMF fonts no longer have `fill leaks' when used
- in PageStream 2.
-
- - The AutoMetric requester has been slightly re-designed.
-
- - Intellifont files are now scaled to match AGFA's recommended size.
-
- - New project tool type for Soft-Logik fonts: FIXEDPITCH=yes|no
- Necessary since DMF does not support a fixedpitch flag.
-
- - `Delete' in overview panel now deletes compositions as well.
-
- - Miscellaneous minor bug fixes.
-
-
- How to install:
- --------------
-
- 1. Uncompress the TS101.run archive in RAM: or on your harddrive.
-
- It is recommended that you move the update files (lpatch,
- Install_TS_Update, Install_TS_Update.info, TypeSmith_1.01.pch)
- to RAM: or a harddrive before double-clicking on Install_TS_Update.
-
- 2. Put your original TypeSmith 1.0 program disk in df0:.
-
- To install the update you need a working-copy of your *unchanged*
- TypeSmith 1.0 original disk. The patch cannot be applied to
- personalized, powerpacked or otherwise changed copies of TypeSmith.
- ENSURE you write-protect this disk to avoid damaging it.
-
- This disk *must* be placed in the df0: drive.
-
- FLOPPY DISK USERS: You must place your original write-protected
- TypeSmith disk in df0:, and your working-copy of the disk in another
- floppy drive. DO NOT try to patch the file on your working floppy,
- you will not have a enough disk space to complete the patch. Copy the
- Unchanged TypeSmith 1.0 program file to RAM: first. Then apply the
- patch to the one in RAM:. When the patch is finished, copy the NEW
- TypeSmith to your working disk.
-
-
- 3. Double click on the Install_TS_Update icon and follow the instructions.
-
- The installer will patch your TypeSmith 1.0 program to version 1.01.
-
-
- What the patch installer does:
- -----------------------------
-
- The installer script loads the Installer program from the disk in
- df0:. It asks you to select the directory in which your working
- copy of TypeSmith 1.0 is stored. (This is where TypeSmith 1.01 will
- be saved upon completion.) Then it runs the patch program to
- convert the TypeSmith 1.0 program in df0: to create TypeSmith 1.01
- in RAM:. Finally, TypeSmith 1.01 is copied to your working
- directory.
