Puts the character from the editing window into a temporary buffer called the
clipboard, and erases it from the editing window.

To copy the character in the clipboard into a particular code point, select the
character with that code point. Then use PASTE (on the EDIT pull-down) to copy
the clipboard character into the editing window. It replaces the selected
character, and is given the code point of that character. You can then alter
the new character.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Copy Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Puts a copy of the character from the editing window into a temporary buffer
called the clipboard, leaving the character in the editing window.

To put the character in the clipboard into a particular code point, select the
character with that code point. Then use PASTE (on the EDIT pull-down) to copy
the clipboard character back into the editing window. It replaces the selected
character, and is given the code point of that character. You can then make
changes to the character.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. Paste Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Gets a character from a temporary buffer called the clipboard, and puts it into
the editing window.  The only type of clipboard data that may be pasted is a
bitmap.

The clipboard bitmap replaces any character that is already in the editing
window, but does not change the code point for that character.

When the clipboard bitmap buffer is empty, PASTE is unavailable.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5. Undo Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Removes the last change you made to the current character.

You can only undo the last thing you did in the editing window.

If your last action was to save the character, and its appearance is changed in
the list of characters, UNDO has no effect.

If you want to undo several changes, it may be easier to start editing the
character again, (use RESET on the EDIT pull-down).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. Reset Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 12. Header Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use these choices to define the type you are creating.

Naming

Specifies type face name, code page information, and other identification
details.

General

Specifies spacing (fixed or proportional), type face style, line width, and
type weight.

Sizes

Specifies the type dimensions.

Relations

Specifies character slope, character rotation, and inline direction, and
subscript, superscript, underscore, and strikeout sizes and positions.

Definition

Specifies the method of determining character-spacing (only available for
proportional fonts).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 13. Naming Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use these fields to identify the font.

The Type face name can be anything you like.

The Family name should be the name of an existing type-family that is visually
similar to the font you create.

The Font family class should be set to an appropriate class for the font.

The Font family subclass should be set to an appropriate subclass for the font.
The possible subclasses will change based on the font family class that you
select.

The Registry ID is the IBM registry number for the font. This is zero if it is
not registered.

Click on Protected if the type face can only be used under a license agreement
with its copyright owner.

The Character set/code page is the registered code page supported by the font
(0-999). This is set to 850 if using the Universal Glyph List (UGL) font.

The First char code point is the code number of the first character in the
font, and the Last char code point is the code number of the last character in
the font. All numbers in between must represent a character in the font.

The Default char code point is the code of the character to be used if a code
point outside the range of the font is passed to the application using the
font.

The Break char code point is the code of the SPACE or BREAK character for this
font.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 14. General Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Style options refer to the type style. Different styles are created by varying
the serifs, the angle of stress (diagonal or vertical), and the contrast
between thick and thin strokes.  Spacing refers to how much space appears
between characters. Fixed spacing means that the same amount of space separates
each character. Proportional spacing means the space each character occupies is
in proportion to its actual width.  Width refers to the relative width of a
character to its height; condensed fonts are very narrow while expanded fonts
are very wide.  Weight refers to the line thickness of the character relative
to its size.

The Standards compliance checkbox indicates whether this font has been tested
for conformance to ISO Standard 9241 part 3 (visual displays). This box
reflects the setting of the ISO 9241 flag in the selection flag word of the
font metrics structure. When the font has been tested, a code number for the
appropriate visual display(s) is shown in each of the entry fields marked
"Passes" and "Fails". You can set these numbers when you edit a font which has
been tested for conformance.  Each entry field will contain an integer in the
range 0-255.  The bits indicate whether the corresponding visual display passed
or failed. The coding of the bits for the displays is given in "Presentation
Manager Programming Reference Volume III" in the appendix defining the
font-file format.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 15. Sizes Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Specify the font character dimensions (in pels, unless otherwise stated).

Nominal vert point size is the normal display size of the font. Minimum vert
point size and Maximum vert point size are, respectively, the minimum and
maximum vertical dimensions that the font can be resized to.  These are all
specified in decipoints.

Target dev resolution X and Target dev resolution Y are, respectively, the
number of pels per inch in the horizontal and vertical axes of the target
display device.

Max char increment is the maximum horizontal distance from the left edge of one
character to the left edge of the next character to the right.

Max baseline extent is the sum of the maximum ascender and the maximum
descender.

Em increment is the width of the 'EmSquare'.

Average char width is the average horizontal distance from the left edge of one
character to the left edge of the next.  This is calculated with a weighted
average of lowercase widths.

Internal leading is the vertical distance from the top of a character to any
accent marks that may appear with it. External leading is the recommended
vertical distance from the bottom of one character to the top of the character
below it. Used for recommended interline spacing.

Maximum ascender and Maximum descender are the maximum distances that any part
of any character may extend above or below the baseline.

Em height is the height of the 'EmSquare' which represents the point size of
the font in device coordinates.

'x' height is the distance above the baseline reached by lowercase symbols (the
height of the lowercase 'x').

Lowercase ascent and Lowercase descent are, respectively, the distances above
and below the baseline reached by any part of any lowercase symbol in the font.

Baseline offset is the full height of the character, from the baseline to the
top of the character box.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 16. Relations Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Specify the position of the characters.

The Character slope is the angle by which each character is slanted, increasing
clockwise from vertical.

The Inline direction is the angle of the line of type, increasing clockwise
from horizontal.

The Character rotation is the angle by which each character is rotated around
its own center, increasing clockwise from vertical.

The Underscore size is the size of the underscore character, measured in single
strikeout strokes. The Underscore position is the distance in pels below the
baseline of the first (lowest) underscore stroke. This is specified as a
positive distance.

The Strikeout size is the size of the strikeout character. The Strikeout
position is the distance of the strikeout character above the baseline (in
pels).

Subscript size and Superscript size are, respectively, the size of subscript
and superscript characters (in pels).

Superscript position and Subscript position are, respectively, the distances of
superscript and subscript characters above and below the baseline (in pels).


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 17. Definition Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Specify how a proportional font determines its spacing.

specify a, b, c spaces separately means that you will specify these values:

 a - the distance from the left of the character frame to the left edge of the
actual character (left side bearing).

 c - the distance from the right edge of the actual character to the right of
the character frame (right side bearing).

Specify increment (a+b+c) means that you give only one value for the entire
character increment, instead of three.

Character space values

Type in values for both the a space and the c space; these must be in the range
-256 to +256. Negative values allow adjacent character frames (but not the
characters themselves) to overlap.

These values are used for all the characters in the font.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 30. Set Character Increment Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Allows you to change the character spacing of a character in a proportional
font.  The values you provide depend on the Character Increment option
specified in the CHANGING DEFINITION dialog.

If you selected a, b, c spaces specified separately in CHANGING DEFINITION,
enter values for:

 "a" the preceding width

 "c" the succeeding width.

Note: the b value is obtained from the actual character cell width

If you selected Increment (a+b+c) only in CHANGING DEFINITION, just enter the
overall character width in the Set Character Increment dialog.


ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 31. About the Font Editor ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Use the Font Editor to design your own type faces, alphabets, and symbols,
which you can save and use in application programs.

A font is a set of letters, numerals, punctuation characters, and other symbols
that share a common type face design and line weight.

To edit a font, use the choices on the FILE pull-down to open a new or existing
file.

The editing window shows the character you are working on. The smaller viewing
window (to the right of the editing window) shows the character's actual size.
The list of characters below the editing window shows the other characters of
the font. To edit a different character, click on it.

Characters are displayed black on white in the editing window. Click on a pel
to change its color. You can change a series of pels by dragging the mouse
through them.

Use the EDIT pull-down to cut and paste characters.

Use the HEADER pull-down to set the type specifications (for example, line
weight or proportional spacing).

Use the WIDTH pull-down to change the width of proportionally-spaced characters
in the editing window.

Use the SHIFT pull-down to insert or delete a row or column of pels.

When you finish editing the font, select the FILE or EXIT pull-downs to save
the file to disk.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 35. Font Editor ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

The Font Editor is used to modify raster fonts, typically so that an
application may display information, either visual or textual, in a special
way.  Such fonts may be used to construct images using characters designed to
form lines, circles and other geometric shapes. It may also be desirable to add
or delete spacing, add serifs, create italic or bold styles, etc.

The Font Editor consists of four panels or displays, plus several dialogs used
to control major features of a font.  A mouse is required to use the Font
Editor, as no keyboard interface for selection and editing exists.

The first window is an exploded view of the currently selected character. This
window allows the user to modify the character's rasters with the mouse.

The second area is located at the bottom of the Font Editor's main window. this
is a list of characters (displayed in numerical order) and a scroll bar.  The
scroll bar is used to move higher or lower in numerical order. About 50
characters are normally displayed.  To display a character in the edit-window,
select the desired character by clicking on it.

The third area is near the top, just to the right of the exploded view. This
area displays the character currently being edited between two representative
characters (usually O and H).  This allows the user to determine whether
additional space is needed to one side or the other. It also allows the user to
ensure that the serifs on script fonts match between one character and another.

The last area is just below the third, to the right of the exploded view. This
area displays the numerical value (Codepoint), width (Increment) and height
(Row) of the currently selected character.
