#### BINHEX adagio-bold.hqx ****
From: AKIM@opus.mco.edu
Subject: Adagio Font 1.1 (a monospaced font replacement)
Date: Thu, 12 May 1994 22:57:58 -0400 (EDT)
This file is to replace Adagio-Bold in your archives.
This is a monospaced font similar to courier w/out the serifs.
Boldfaced for better readability and great for printing out
files downloaded from the net. Now I have included an italic
version of the font along with the original. Made some slight
improvements to the TrueType hinting.
Try for 15 days! Shareware fee $3
Enjoy!

#### BINHEX adobe-screen.hqx ****
Date: 4 Jun 91 9:31 -0700
From: Les Ferhc <ferch@unixg.ubc.ca>
Subject: Adobe-Screen-Fonts.hqx
The following 746K archive includes a complete set of screen
(bitmap) fonts for the standard 11 font families found in most
PostScript printers. These are the screen fonts from Adobe that
include plain, bold, italic, and bold-italic versions of sizes 10,
12 , 14, 18, and 24 point and have been combined into NFNT font
families. This means, you won't actually see the bold, italic, and
bold-italic fonts in your Font menu, but they will be used when you
select the appropriate style via the Style menu.
As a bonus, I have applied the patch to Symbol and Chancery that
allows you to print these fonts in bold.
Further information is provided within a MacWrite document included
in the archive.
Now, if someone could provide 9 point versions of these fonts,
many of us who have to use tiny print would be very grateful.

#### BINHEX aspire-demi-bold-11.hqx ****
From: AKIM@opus.mco.edu
Subject: Aspire DemiBold 1.1 (Type 1 & TrueType Fonts)
Date: Mon, 30 May 1994 16:47:38 -0400 (EDT)
Aspire is a very elegant typeface great for logos, headlines,
brochures, invitations, etc. I created both Type 1 and TrueType
versions for your pleasure. Personally I think the Type 1
version is suited for more applications, especially if you want
to convert it to outlines in a draw program. It's very similar
to a commerical typeface with the exception it costs much less.
It's slightly boldfaced and ideal for printing above 48pts.
Shareware Payment $5. Send payment and registration to:

Subject: Update to "Bajoran" truetype and Type 1
Here it finally is, the long promised update to the font "Bajoran."
Well, at any rate it is long promised to the people who asked for
it. The fixes made include:
o Cleaned up the curves on a few characters
o Fixed a Kerning problem that made it impossible to
correctly write "Star Trek" (boy, was THAT a complaint)
o Finally got a decent picture of the Bajoran Emblem in there
This font is $5 shareware, or at the very least emailware, from Kiwi
Media. (c) 1993 Eric Oehler/Kiwi Media Group

Could you please post this on MacServe as
FONT-BELSLEY/BARTHOLOMEW.HQX?
Various of my colleagues at Boston College and MIT have found these
fonts very useful and suggested I make them more widely available
In addition to a standard character set, they contain a full Greek
alphabet and a generous complement of mathematical symbols (all of
which, by the way, will print in bold face, unlike the Symbol font upon
which they are based).
This file contains the Belsley and Bartholomew screen fonts (all-purpose
technical LaserWriter fonts), their LaserWriter download files,
corresponding keyboard layout documents, and a Read Me document with
full details. The file must first be unBinHexed and then UnStuffed
(v 1.5.1 was used).

Celtic Font
Several people on the net have expressed interest in a Celtic
font.
This is a bitmapped font called Celtic that I came across several
years ago. Do documentation was available with it so I know not
of its origins. As indicated by the name, it is appropriate for
Celtic/Gaelic style display and printing.
It is compressed as a Self Extracting Archive.

Date: Wed, 11 Dec 91 00:23:06 -0800
From: Robert Lenoil <lenoil@apple.com>
Subject: Monospaced font for coding
There was a recent request for a good monospaced font for programming. I'm
enclosing a binhexed 9pt version of the "Code" font, which I created from
another font I found on AppleLink a while back (I added the slashed zero).
What makes this font great is that there are NO invisible characters - the
characters that are non-printing in most other fonts show up as their ASCII
code inside a rectangle. Zeroes are also slashed, and small "l" does not look
like numeral "1". This is my default font for MPW files (although I print with
courier to avoid sending a bitmap to the LaserWriter). I hope you enjoy it.
Please archive as "Code9.hqx".

Thank you!
Crud Font Documentation
The Crud font is copyright 1994 by Scott K. Yoshinaga.
All rights reserved.
Description
Crud font was made for a poster project that I had for a Halloween Flyer. I
thought it was good enough to release so here it is. The font looks like a
typewriter font that has been totally destroyed. It gives you the feeling that
it has been used too much and cracked up.
The Font was created with Fontographer, Freehand, and Adobe Streamline on a
Macintosh Powerbook 160 (yes, believe it or not). Special thanks to all that
paid for SassyFont and Grunge and for a lot of you who have given me
encouragement and comments on my work. If you have any comments, good or bad I
want to hear it! Check out my other font, FunkyFresh.
Installing Crud
To install Crud, you need to drop the file "Crud" into your system folder. DO
NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE FONT.
For System 7.1 users just drop both the "Crud.bmap" and the "CrudFon" Files in
your system folder. The finder will prompt you whether or not to add them to
your Fonts folder, click OK. Restart the machine, and you are all set!
For those of you using System 6.0.x, use Apple Computer's Font/DA Mover to
install the screen font versions of Crud into your system file in the usual
manner (these screen fonts are in the file "Crud.bmap")
Copyright & Distribution Information
Crud is copyright 1994 by Scott K. Yoshinaga. All rights reserved.
This font is "schoolware". It is not public domain. Please help me pay my way
through college! I hear from various sources that shareware doesn't work.
PLEASE PROVE THEM WRONG! If you use my font please, please pay for it!
Crud works fine on my Macintosh. It may not on yours. No warrantees are
implied, and Crud may not be suitable for any of your purposes.
The possessor of Crud is granted permission to use the font on a single printer
for a period of one month. At the end of the month, the possessor must either
register as a purchaser of the font (as discussed below), or must cease using
the font.
Possessors of Crud may provide copies of this font, along with all related
files, to any user willing to accept the terms of this agreement. This font may
be distributed either by floppy disk (or similar magnetic medium) or by
electronic means (such as via modem). Crud may not be sold. Fees can be charged
in association with Crud, however, such as by users' groups for duplicating
fees, commercial services for downloading time, etc.
I interpret the sale of Crud on commercially prepared "public domain disks" as
a sale of Crud against my expressed instructions. There are severe penalties
for selling copyrighted works in such a manner without the permission of the
author. If your organization wishes to license Crud for sale you may reach me
as described below.
If a user chooses to keep and use Crud for more than one month, a fee of $10
for the font is due me (at the address below). This fee entitles the registrant
to use Crud as he or she sees fit, so long as it is not used on more than one
printer at any given time. This registration fee can be waived if Crud is
simply maintained on a disk (or other medium) for archival or redistribution
purposes (i.e., a users' group librarian doesn't necessarily have to pay the
fee, nor would a telecommunication service such as CompuServe).
Any questions or payments (U.S. checks or equivalent only, please) can be
directed to me at the address below. When registering, please include your name
and address, and please tell me where you obtained Crud. Thanks!
Please make checks payable to Scott K. Yoshinaga

Subject: cyber-chicago.hqx
Well, here I am working on a HyperCard stack (which might get uploaded to
sumex-aim sometime in the next decade) and I decided I wanted a kind of
high-tech cyberpunk-looking font. So I dug out a copy of Chicago, hacked
it up with ResEdit, and voila!
I call it CyberChicago because I couldn't think of anything better.
If you like it, enjoy! If not, trash it. It's in the PUBLIC DOMAIN (yes
kiddies, you could hack it up even more, call it CyberChicago Deluxe, and
I wouldn't care) because I seriously doubt anyone is going to pay money
for it. If you like, though, I might appreciate an email message saying so.
And if I get really bored I might dig out an old copy of Fontographer and
make it a TrueType font.

Subject: cyrillic font submission
Below is a binhex'd, stuffit'd font file that contains a variety of
Cyrillic (Russian, etc) fonts that I collected in response to my request
for Russian fonts. There were name conflicts among the fonts I received
and with other fonts already in the archives, so I renamed some fonts
arbitrarily. I think there is one font duplication, but I did not want
to check it carefully enough to see. Only bitmap fonts were donated; I
did not find any publically available outline fonts.

#### BINHEX davys-other-dingbats.hqx ****

From: squish@das.harvard.edu (Shishin Yamada)
Please Note: I am not the author of this font file. Recently, I
uploaded a TrueType conversion of the "DavysRibbons" file, which, for
some reason or another lost its original TrueType associated file.
Anyways, I received quite a few letters asking for the other fonts of
the "Davys" family. Here, anyways, is one of the TrueType and Laser PS
files for "DavysOtherDingbats," with all its files.
The thanks, credits, and any cash should go to David Rakowski, the
AUTHOR of these fonts. I just got asked to post it, since it seems
sumex-aim no longer has it. A blurb from the README docs follows.
-squish@endor.harvard.edu

>characters on either of the option keyboards.
>
>Because the outline font is so large (around 107K), it is advised you

This font is another in my series of "fonts based off of album

that characterised the original album covers. Also includes a
few dingbats (logoes, etc.)

#### BINHEX font-card-11-hc.hqx ****
Date: Mon, 1 Jun 1992 01:19 EET
From: TARMANTO@kontu.cc.utu.fi
FontCard (v1.1) is a HyperCard 2.x stack for to catalog your fonts.
With it, you create A4-letter-sized forms containing (all) keyboard
characters of (all) active fonts and get them printed or bitmap images
of them stacked. There's also a report template for you get a printout
with only one or a few sample lines of each font (save much paper).
Some features of FontCard are:
- the default character sets are editable
- each font card (character sets) is editable
- text size may be chosen from 9 to 48 for each card
- quick text spacing chages
- mark card, unmark card, invert all marks, unmark all.
- new cards marked automatically; cards for fonts that are
not available, unmarked automatically (on startup)
- print card / marked / all
- create bitmap "shadow" of card / marked / all
Some of those features help you scan through the fonts you keep
in suitcases or in only one or two machines on your large network.
FontCard can't catalog fonts from closed suitcases, though, but you
can open a bunch of fonts, catalog them, unmark them, close them
/move to another machine, open another bunch of fonts (partly the
same than the first one, maybe), catalog (only the marked ones of)
them, etc.
Version 1.1 works with HC2.1 also (1.0 didn't).
FontCard is mostly FREE; It _may_, though, and if used at work or
in business, _should_ be paid for. Please give a copy to your friends.

"fontcvt" is a UNIX program I wrote one day while waiting for my hard disc
to be repaired. It extracts FONT resources from a Macintosh resource file
and creates font files in vfont format. These fonts can be used as Sun
screen fonts. (Theoretically they could also be used as Versatec
printer fonts, but the difference in resolution makes all but the largest
Mac fonts too small for the Versatec.)

FontMaster 2.0 is an application I wrote out of necessity. It is constantly
being updated, and will improve more over time. It was tested on many Macintosh
models, and on both monochrome and color systems. It is System 7 compatible,
and will even work great on the Quadra systems.
FontMaster 2.0 is a utility for printing catalogs of the fonts you have
installed in your system. It has a filter for TrueType so you can list and
print only those fonts you want to list. It allows complete font lists, or full
character sheets to be printed.
If you encounter any bugs with this application, please drop me a note. I
already have a list of additional features I will be adding, but will gladly
listen to all suggestions.

Subject: [*] Pictorial guide to downloading shareware fonts
Up to this point, downloading fonts from various FTP sites was
a frustrating proposition for one reason- because you never know
what you are getting until you have taken the time to download it.
Thus, I have taken it upon myself to create an electronic guide to
the world of shareware fonts. I have collected every shareware and
freeware truetype font available through the internet, and America
Online. Also, many of these fonts are probably available through
compuserve as well. I printed a catalogue showing samples of each font
(usually the characters abcdeFGHIJ12345, unless it was a caps font
or dingbats font), and then scanned it into a PICT file using an apple
scanner set to greyscale at 150 dpi. The original document scanned was
printed at 300dpi.
The best way to view this is to read it into a draw or paint program
and view it at 200%. For some reason the fonts look much more like what
they will really look like if you do this. Some fonts didn't come through
so great (particularly thin fonts, like PremiumThin, which I highly
reccommend anyway), but to scan these in at a higher resolution would have
raised the size of the file to well over 2 meg.

Subject: (*) Font Fro #2 Specimen Book
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 94 10:30:15 CST
Attached is a program which illustrates 150 of the typefaces in
Font Pro Vol 2, a CD-ROM of typefaces which I designed. The CD-ROM,
published by Wayzata Technology, has a retail price of $29 (and
a street price of about $20.) Unlike most (all?) other collections
in this price range, these typefaces are not public-domain/shareware
or rip-offs of other people's designs.
I could publicize this product by releasing a demo typeface of two,
but frankly the amount of software piracy in typefaces has so disgusted
me that I may never again release any typefaces as shareware/freeeware/
demoware. Much of the problem arises in the PC world, which has a program
(AllType by Atech) which transfroms typefaces from one format to another, and
in the prcess replaces copyright notices. So if you see a typeface with
a copyright notice by Atech, there is a good chance that it is pirated..
This program may be freely distributed provided that no changes are made to it.

Here is my latesr font called Funky Fresh with a description. Please place this
in the Fonts Folder. Thankyou!
FunkyFresh Font Documentation
The FunkyFresh font is copyright 1994 by Scott K. Yoshinaga.
All rights reserved.
Description
FunkyFresh font is a really cool all capital letters font. I thought it would
be cool to do a font in a way some graffitti artist write. It also goes well
with all of the hip looking computer art that is coming out.
The Font was created with Fontographer, Freehand, and Adobe Streamline on a
Macintosh Powerbook 160 (yes, beleive it or not). Special thanks to all that
paid for SassyFont and GrungeFont and for a lot of you who have given me
encouragement and comments on my work. If you have any comments, good or bad I
want to hear it!
Installing FunkyFresh
To install FunkyFresh, you need to drop the file "FunkyFresh" into your system
folder. DO NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE FONT.
For System 7.1 users just drop both the "FunkyFresh.bmap" and the
"FunkyFreshRegPla" Files in your system folder. The finder will prompt you
wether or not to add them to your Fonts folder, click OK. Restart the machine,
and you are all set!
For those of you using System 6.0.x, use Apple Computer's Font/DA Mover to
install the screen font versions of FunkyFresh into your system file in the
usual manner (these screen fonts are in the file "FunkyFresh.bmap")
Copyright & Distribution Information
FunkyFresh is copyright 1994 by Scott K. Yoshinaga. All rights reserved.
This font is "schoolware". It is not public domain. Please help me pay my way
through college! I hear from various sources that sharware doesn't work. PLEASE
PROVE THEM WRONG! If you use my font please, please pay for it!
FunkyFresh works fine on my Macintosh. It may not on yours. No warrantees are
implied, and FunkyFresh may not be suitable for any of your purposes.
The possessor of FunkyFresh is granted permission to use the font on a single
printer for a period of one month. At the end of the month, the possessor must
either register as a purchaser of the font (as discussed below), or must cease
using the font.
Possessors of FunkyFresh may provide copies of this font, along with all
related files, to any user willing to accept the terms of this agreement. This
font may be distributed either by floppy disk (or similar magnetic medium) or
by electronic means (such as via modem). FunkyFresh may not be sold. Fees can
be charged in association with FunkyFresh, however, such as by users' groups
for duplicating fees, commercial services for downloading time, etc.
I interpret the sale of FunkyFresh on commercially prepared "public domain
disks" as a sale of FunkyFresh against my expressed instructions. There are
severe penalties for selling copyrighted works in such a manner without the
permission of the author. If your organization wishes to license FunkyFresh for
sale you may reach me as described below.
If a user chooses to keep and use FunkyFresh for more than one month, a fee of
$10 for the font is due me (at the address below). This fee entitles the
registrant to use FunkyFresh as he or she sees fit, so long as it is not used
on more than one printer at any given time. This registration fee can be waived
if FunkyFresh is simply maintained on a disk (or other medium) for archival or
redistribution purposes (i.e., a users' group librarian doesn't necessarily
have to pay the fee, nor would a telecommunication service such as CompuServe).
Any questions or payments (U.S. checks or equivalent only, please) can be
directed to me at the address below. When registering, please include your name
and address, and please tell me where you obtained FunkyFresh. Thanks!
Please make checks payable to Scott K. Yoshinaga

From: Glenn Fleishman <fleglei@well.sf.ca.us>
Subject: (*) Furioso font sampler update
Dear info-mac community, Two years ago I originally submitted
FuriosoTitling, the caps and numerals from a shareware font I
designed called Furioso (after Berthold Wolpe's Albertus). In the
intervening two years, I improved the complete font, by adding many
characters (mostly foreign language) and some alternate characters.
Also in the intevening two years, I have lived at three different
addresses. Wayzata released a font disk that had my old address on
it, which ceased being forwarded several months ago. If you a
registered owner of Furioso (US$12 for the complete font), please
contact me at: 5 Willow St. Apt. A, Camden, ME 04843 or
fleglei@well.sf.ca.us. I have also resubmitted a newer version of the
sampler version of Furioso, called Furisampleoso (printer font is
Furis) for those interested in seeing or registering the new complete
version. Enclosed is a TrueType suitcase, and the Type 1 bitmaps and
printer font, as well as a document about what you get on
registration. Please feel free to contact me via e-mail or snail mail
if you have questions.

This is a font based on gaeilic fonts prior to the use of Roman
fonts for writing in Gaeilic. It includes dotted consonants for
aspiration. Read the "Leigh Mise" file for more info. The "Sampla"
file is a file with some gaelic writing in it so you can see what it
looks like. Obviously, you must install the font first. Both
postscript (Type I) and bitmap fonts are include. ATM compatible.
This font is shareware (US$10). I am open to comments and criticisms.
This is the first in a series of Gaelic fonts I plan to develop.
Some will be traditional, some will be new. I hope you enjoy this one.

Subject: [*] GrayChicago font for HyperCard
GrayChicago is a 12 point bitmapped (NOT TT or Type 1) font
similar to the Chicago that is included with the Macintosh, but
instead of solid black characters, it uses a gray "desktop" fill
pattern. This font can be installed in your System or in your
HyperCard application, and can be used to make HyperCard buttons
that look and act like "real" buttons; that is, they can appear
to be disabled ("grayed-out") when appropriate. This is much
simpler to implement than making painted copies of buttons and
manually filling each character of the copy with the gray pat-
ern. Complete instructions and sample scripts are included.
Stuffit archive includes the stack with the font installed, and
a separate font suitcase file (less than 4K). This version 1.2
adds system 7.x installation info to the stack and updates
the author's Email address. The stack now requires HC version
2.x. No change to the font. If you have version 1.0 or 1.1,
you've got this font. Free.

This is the second release of my font "Handwriting".
[Note to Moderators: This replaces "handwriting.hqx"]
This font was generated from tidied-up traced scans of my handwriting, and,
when printed out doesn't look too unlike real writing.
This release of the font is a major advance on the last release - it now
contains 211 characters, and is almost a 'complete' font.
This archive contains Postscript type 1 and TrueType versions.
The font "Handwriting" is "milk-of-human-kindnessware". It is free to be
used without permission in any noncommercial work - permission for any
other usage must sought from me. It may be distributed freely, so long as
the file "Handwriting README" remains unaltered, and is distributed with

Subject: Revised freeware version of Letter-Gothic-EGG monospaced font
This Plain (Roman) version of the classic font Letter Gothic, a *freeware*
incarnation called "LetterGothic-EGG," is intended to serve one purpose:
To print text, such as from online sessions, that originally has been
created on fixed-pitch (monospaced), Elite (12 characters per inch)
platforms or devices, such as many Unix, IBM or Atari computers; and have
the resulting output look more or less as though it had been produced on
an IBM Selectric(R) typewriter. Period.
This minor update, which adds a 14-point bitmap (screen) size to the
PostScript and TrueType versions of the font, should be downloaded by
existing users only if this additional point size is needed on-screen.
To the administrators: Please remove any older version(s) of
Letter-Gothic-EGG.hqx (or equivalent) from your archives, and replace it
with this one.
Enjoy.

Attached is MacHumaine, the best calligraphic laser font that I have found
in the public domain. The author (Bill Horton) not only gives away his
finished product, but also includes his Fontographer file so others can
alter it to suit their tastes. That is true public domain. I found it on
the latest release of the Club Mac cd, which has the best collection of
pd and shareware laser fonts that I am aware of. You can judge for yourself
it it is worth more than its price.
The next issue of PUBLISH magazine (October) was scheduled (and hopefully still
is scheduled to have an article telling what is now available in PostScript
typefaces.
Another good source of info about the typeface scene is PERSONAL PUBLISHING
magazine. It has a monthly column called "Type Drawer" which illustrates six
new typefaces. In the last issue they showed an Adobe font called "Cheq." It
is a chess typeface, and the column said it was freeware. Has anyone seen it?

Howdy!
Enclosed is "Quantum," a freeware postscript font.
It looks like Helvetica (tm) compressed, and is useful for many
display purposes. (And as an unhinted font, use below 24pt at
300dpi is not recommended.) Screen fonts are included for sizes
24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 pt, in NFNT format.
Upper and lower case, numerals, and most punctuation are included.
However, the font is missing certain symbols which I had no use for
at the time, including { } @ ^ < > \ ~ and various others. Sorry.
Hope some of you may find it useful.

Subject: A Type 1 Font with recycling symbols
Enclosed is a bihex'd stuffit (1.51) archive of a PostScript Type 1
outline font with accompanying bitmaps. The font consists of several
versions of the international recycling symbol (the one with the three
arrows forming a triangle). It includes the basic symbol in several
variations as well as special versions for each of the seven classes
of recyclable plastics.
A sample document showing how they look and the key combinations used
is included.
The symbols will not show up in the Font/Da Mover sample window, and are
pretty unreadable in the keycaps DA, so print the sample to see how they
look.
This font was downloaded from America Online. I have no connection
with or knowledge of its creator.

Hello,
Here is the second and last version of the SteveHandwriting font.
It is available in both TrueType and ATM Type 1 format.
It's now a complete font with all French, Scandinavian and Spanish accents,
and a lot of extra characters.
I have been experiencing some problems with ATM 3.0, not all extra characters
are interpreted, and remain as bitmaps, but the TrueType font works correctly.
Please replace the steve.hqx file you have with this one.
Sincerely,

Well, here it is. This is a bitmapped USPS Barcode font. It comes

a multiple of 10 (Damned if I know why).
If someone were to either convert this to PS Type 1 or could post

Here is my favorite eyestrain inducing screen font. This is a very old
bitmap font that is the smallest screen display font that I know of. It
includes what are called 10 and 20 point sizes but those numbers are in no
way related to the real display size which is more like 5 point. The font
consists of characters that are 5 pixels high. It is not monospaced. I
use it for showing lots and lots of cells in a spreadsheet because it
displays much cleaner than a small size of an outline font.

Zed, A TYPE 1 FONT FOR THE Z SPECIFICATION LANGUAGE
===================================================
DESCRIPTION
'Zed' is a font for the Z specification language that can be used on Apple
Macintoshes and under Windows. This release includes a PostScript Type 1
font, compatible with Adobe Type Manager, a TrueType font and, for the
Macintosh only, bitmapped fonts in 10, 12 and 24 point sizes.
CHANGES FROM EARLIER VERSION
This version replaces the font 'Z'. Substantial changes have been made,
and the two fonts are not key compatible, hence the change of name. These
changes are described below. To preserve existing documents, do not
discard the old 'Z' font.
+ Zed supports the Z Base Standard, Version 1.0. It includes all
characters in the standard and those in the Spivey book (the old
Z font was based on Hayes' book). Other characters have also been
added, for example many different types of semantic brackets.
+ Zed includes characters for drawing schema borders (aside: these
look much better on paper than on screen).
+ Zed is no longer a composite of the Symbol font: users will have to
use Symbol explicitly to get, say, greek letters. This change has
several advantages:
- More characters are available.
- Characters are no longer hidden in obscure places requiring
multiple keystrokes.
- Wherever possible, similar characters have been placed
adjacently (at least on the Macintosh).
- Some of the more common characters have been placed in more
memorable positions, e.g. "for all" is at A, "there exists" is
at E, ...
+ Zed includes Type 1 and Truetype fonts for use with Adobe Type
Manager on the Macintosh or under Windows (Z was a Type 3 font).
+ Zed uses a 'blackboard' font for operators like the powerset symbol P,
whereas Z used a serif P. Ditto for Z, F, N, R and Q. The reason for
this change is conformance with general practice rather than aesthetics.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MACINTOSH
This release includes the following files
Zed a Type 1 PostScript font
Zed.bmap a suitcase of bitmap fonts (10, 12 and 24 points)
Zed.tt a suitcase containing a TrueType font
You must install either the Zed and Zed.bmap files or the Zed.tt file included
with this release.
These instructions are believed to be correct.
1. Install the "Zed.bmap" or "Zed.tt" file into your "System" file (in the
"System Folder").
If you are using System 7, drag the file into the "System Folder" and
follow the instructions.
If you are using System 6, use the "Font/DA Mover" utility to install
the bitmap fonts in "Zed.bmap" into the "System" file.
2. Put the "Zed" file into
(a) the "Fonts" folder in the "System Folder" (System 7.1), or
(b) the "Extensions" folder in the "System Folder" (System 7), or
(c) the "System Folder" (System 6).
Simply dragging "Zed" into the "System Folder" and following any
instructions should do the trick for all these systems.
