- Hi TeXers
-
- I apologise if this is in the supplementary info; I don't have a copy at the
- moment and I need this yesterday. I am looking for a non-proportional font
- of the IBM PC character set, including the line drawing characters. I have a
- whole bunch of text screen dumps that I need to make into figures, and this
- seems like the best approach.
-
- Does anyone know if/where such a font is available, or have other suggestions
- about how to do these figures?
-
- BTW, I did try using xterm, xwd and xpri; I also tried xwd2pnm and pnm2ps.
- I found that the one case produced small files but that they were trash, while
- the other case produced files over 1Mb in size each time (a pixel image).
- I want a solution that (i) works (ii) without creating huge files.
-
- Thanks in advance
- Graham
