- Short Description:
- ------------------
-
- LQMATRIX is a font editor for 24 pin dot matrix printers that
- use Epson codes (including the NEC 24 pin printers). The
- package, besides the editor, provides a large number (about
- 50) soft fonts in Draft, NLQ and Proportional modes, that are
- ready to be directly downloaded to the printer with the LQ.EXE
- utility.
-
- Long Description:
- -----------------
-
-
- LQMATRIX provides a user friendly environment for designing fast
- printing, text mode, fonts for Epson LQ dot matrix printers and
- compatibles. It comes with over fifty ready made and ready to use
- fonts including Script, Italics, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Large Type,
- Math symbols, OCR-A & B, and attractive fonts especially designed for
- LQMATRIX by talented graphic designers. The documentation includes
- instructions for using the fonts with various word processors
- including WP 5.1, PCWrite 3, XYwrite, and Word 5.5. The downloader,
- LQ.EXE, also serves as a printer setter. It can set the printer to
- emphasized, bold, italics (etc.) with or without downloading.
-
- LQMATRIX and fonts are designed to use the TEXT MODE for printing user
- made fonts. In contrast to Graphics, this mode is as fast as using the
- default letters and thus is useful for printing long texts. In the
- Text mode the printer accepts a ('soft' or RAM) font into memory and
- uses it rather than the built in ('hard' or ROM) font. In fact, when
- so instructed, it can switch between the two. Thus if you have
- written a paper in English, but wish to cite examples in the Greek
- alphabet, you can 'download' (send to the printer) the Greek font
- (GREEK.LQN on this package) and use it when necessary.
-
- There will be two types of users for these programs. First are those
- who wish to use a variety of ready made fonts for different purposes,
- or just for variety's sake. These users will not be interested in
- creating their own fonts. For them, all that is needed is the LQ.EXE
- program. With it, any of the premade fonts included here can be
- downloaded to the printer.

-
-
-
- The other users are those who wish to create their own fonts, modify
- to their satisfaction those that are already supplied, or create a
- small number of special characters for a specific task. LQMATRIX.EXE
- provides just the environment these users need. It is an easy to use
- matrix program with many features that permits the user to create
- characters, store them in a file, and download them to the Epson LQ
- family of 24 dot matrix printers. With it you can design Draft, NLQ,
- and Proportional characters.
-
- Registration is for $19.50 USA ($24 USA overseas). Registered users
- receive the latest version of the program, printed documentation, a
- registration number and technical support without limit of time. Site
- licenses are available.
