In order to supplement my TrueType collection with the shareware TrueType I
used a spreadsheet program and created an ascii file which listed the filenames
for the fonts that I wanted to download. I have enclosed the spreadsheet
and the resulting ascii files which will be of use to anyone who wishes to fill
out their collection.
TYPECASE.TT
If you are starting a collection I strongly recommend purschase of the SWFTE
Typecase product which sells for less than $20 (CompUSA) and contains about 140
fonts. There is some considerable overlap between the TYPECASE collection and
the fonts available on exec-PC however the TYPECASE uses non-standard face name.
I have encluded the ascii filename list TYPECASE.TT which list the exec-pc
filenames. If you already have TYPECASE you would not want to download the fonts
on the list but otherwise the files listed would be an excellant TrueType
collection. (33 faces 2.6 meg zipped) Note there are 3 exec-pc faces Helvetica
(Arial), Times-Roman and Symbol which are included in the Basic Win 3.1--I
have not included those filenames on any of my download list.
YES.TT
The YES.TT download list contains 83 font faces (3 meg zipped) I would
recommend downloading. I have eliminated files which are defective (ie would sometime not print; did not
print all uppercase letter or were duplicates--see spread sheet for details
"BAD.TT 18 faces .8 meg). I have also eliminated 127 faces ("NO-SUB.TT" 3.9 meg zipped) based upon
a subjective evaluation.
Note: my files contain ONLY fonts that were on EXEC-PC as of 5/16/92. This
includes all the fonts that were uploaded by Mark Slocomb 5/6-5/12 plus 8
additional faces Hancock, Agate, Markfelt, Ballet Engraved Black Forest
Ponderosa Arctic2 and Aurora
HOW TO USE:
In order to automatically list the files you want to upload hit the <R>ember
key from the E windows collection. The upload the YES.TT etc file using any
ASCII file upload rountine built into your communictions program - remember to
set the pacing character to ">".
CUSTOMIZING LIST
I have include the WK1 file for the benefit of anyone who wants to customize
their own download list. This may be particularly usefull to anyone who
had already downloaded the zipped files TTYPE1-TTYPE15 which were once on
the EXec PC board. I have designated those files with the notation TT1-TT15
under the "Prior Download" column. If you want to eliminate those files or
any of you prior downloads you can use the 1-2-3 sort routine and then print
the filenames to your own ASCII file.
REVISION
5/22 Added Black Forest, Ponderosa Artic2 and Aurora which were uploaded
since 5/16 to "no-subjective" list. File now is complete for fonts uploaded
through 5/21/92.
