- FONTEXTR reads a ChiWriter .EFT high resolution font and writes its characters
- to disk either in binary screen font format or as an assembly language source
- segment.
-
- Note: ChiWriter is a very powerful, professional scientific word processing
- package. It can be obtained through Horstmann & Mueller software,
- Kaiserstraße 79-1, Reutlingen. It features a full range of foreign language
- characters and science symbols that can be used freely. FONTEXTR merely
- allows for the integration of ChiWriter's high resolution screen characters
- into different environments.
-
- Usage: FONTEXTR infile outfile [options]
-
- Option /a produce assembly language output
- option /sc=n starting character definition (33 by default)
- The result of using this option depends on the setting
- of the /a switch:
- /a switch set: The program writes the correct
- number to intermediate comment lines automatically.
- The /sc=n merely assures, the program "knows" the
- number of the first character to be converted
- /a switch not set: The program prefixes the character
- bytes by an approppriate number of null bytes to
- adjust the locations of the characters. Default
- is no adjustment (all characters starting off from
- 0). If you want to have the characters at their ori-
- ginal location in the screen font file, use the
- /sc= switch. For instance, you might want to
- have the GOTHIC characters, starting from '!':
- FONTEXTR gothic.eft gothic.fnt /sc=33
- Without the /a switch, there is no default for this
- option, of course.
