- Here is the first complete draft of Mac Kermit Fonts. Following this
- description is a bin-hexed version of a stuffit-compressed font suitcase.
-
- Mac Kermit Fonts:
-
- Fonts: A and X
- Sizes: 9, 12, 18, 24, and 36
- Styles: plain and bold
-
- Metrics:
-
- Size | Ascent Descent Leading Width
- --------|---------------------------------
- 9 | 9 2 0 6
- 12 | 13 2 0 7
- 18 | 18 4 0 12
- 24 | 24 6 0 14
- 36 | 39 6 0 21
-
- After de-binhexing and unstuffing the suitcase you'll need to move the
- fonts into your system file. If you are not using Apple system 7, use
- the Font/DA Mover. If using system 7 double-click on the suitcase, select
- the fonts and drag them onto your system folder.
-
- Please feel free to critique the character shapes; there are lots of them
- I don't use or encounter. Send your comments (hopefully with drawings) to:

- To: fdc@watsun.cc.columbia.edu
-
- 6/15/92. A handful of changes to the MacKermit fonts:
-
- - In font-a, code position 165 (multiply) is now the x-shape instead of dot.
- - Some of the diaresis marks are strengthened.
- - One character was found to be off the baseline and was moved down to match
- the rest of the set.
-
- Attached is the complete updated font suitcase, stuffed and binhexed.
- After de-binhexing and unstuffing the suitcase you'll need to move the
- fonts into your system file. If you are not using Apple system 7, use
- the Font/DA Mover. If using system 7 double-click on the suitcase, select
- the fonts and drag them onto your system folder.
