Andesite is a beautiful TrueType-compatible display typeface based on Letraset╒s PLAZA (formerly PLAYBOY). To be able to use this font, you must be using System 6.0.7 or later, and have Apple╒s TrueType Init installed. This font has uppercase characters, numerals, punctuation, and accent marks only. There are numerous alternate swash characters for most of the characters (several characters have two alternates). Andesite was created entirely with Letraset╒s FontStudio 2.0, which should be released soon. Andesite includes a 48-point screenfont and the AFM file as well as this READ ME--ANDESITE document.
This font includes many alternate swash capitals, and since there is no lowercase character set, I used the uppercase equivalent for alternates. Example: Pressing ╥Shift-A╙ will get you the swash verion of the character, while simply pressing ╥a╙ will get you the normal A. To locate the other alternate characters, use the Key Caps DA from Apple.
THIS FONT IS SHAREWARE !----------------------------
I am asking only $25 for Andesite, with a free 10-day trial period to test it out and see if you like it. If you keep it any longer than 10 days you will feel guilty and send in your $25, right? In exchange, you will be a licensed user and you can freely download any updates off of the on-line services or BBSs. Not a bad deal, eh? Due to a shortage of time, I will upload updates to America Online, Genie, and CompuServe only.
