-----------------------------PrintFonts V1.10------------------------------
PrintFonts V1.10 is Copyright (c)1989, 1990 by Dave Schreiber. All rights
reserved. PrintFonts is freely distributable, and must be distributed
without cost, except for costs related to copying, media, labels, taxes,
and shipping/handling.
PrintFonts will print out a list of all the fonts in your FONTS:
directory, with each font's name being printed in the font itself. This
is meant to give you something that you can use as a sort of quick
reference guide to your fonts, i.e. you look at the printout to get an
idea of what font(s) you're interested in for a particular task, then
you use something like ShowFont to see all the characters in that font.
PrintFonts' command line goes something like this:
1> PrintFonts [options]
where the options are:
-c# -- Print the fonts in # columns.
-m -- Goes through the fonts and determines the maximum number of
columns that can be printed on one page, but doesn't print
them.
-b -- Combines both -m and -c, i.e. figures out how many columns
can be printed on one page, then print out all the fonts
using that many columns.
-r -- Print out each font's name twice. First in the font itself,
then in Topaz. This is so that if you have fonts that don't
use Roman letters (such as Cairo, Music, etc.), you'll still
be able to tell what they are. Note that this reduces the
number of columns PrintFonts will be able to squeeze onto
each page.
'1> PrintFonts ?' will give you a summary of these options.
That's it. Any questions, comments, praise, etc. can be sent to me
at the address(es) below. Enjoy.
