A GREAT CATALOG OF EXCLUSIVE FONTS
==================================
Since 1987, Match Software has been creating great font products.
Our collection offers original fonts, not found in other collections
nor in regular commercial collections. Have a look at the following
sample catalog for an insight at their diversity.
Great FOREIGN FONTS too, if you need Russian, Hebrew, Ancient Greek,
Slovak, Armenian, Japanese. These fonts would cost hundreds of
dollars in a regular store !
These fonts are ACCENTED, meaning they work great to write foreign
languages such as FRENCH, SPANISH, ITALIAN, GERMAN, and others. They
contain also the "graphic" and scientific symbols.
Take to-day's opportunity to get FIFTY of these new original fonts
for only $20 (instead of $39.95 regular), handling and postage
included (US. only). Check out the many exclusive and original
fonts you will receive for that low, low price.
Many of these fonts are definitely not available elsewhere. In a
boring DTP world which used to be ruled by Times and Helvetica, make
an aesthetic statement. Get your point across with taste and
originality.
These types are compatible with typesetting as well, and are
successfully used daily by the most prominent DTP specialists. Just
hand them to your competent typesetter along with your desktop
publishing documents, and you will get great films and printouts for
your ads and all your graphic works.
Here are these marvels. Check them out, and look for the Order Form
document. For information, or if you are looking for a font or a
language not described here, call us at (213) 656-4244

EXCLUSIVE AND EXQUISITE NOVELTY FONTS
=====================================
The 50 Fonts, Volume 1
----------------------
This is a great classic. The 50 Fonts Pack #1 has been saluted by
numerous magazines as a great deal, and many of it's fonts are still
exclusive to-day. Furthermore, it contains many foreign language
fonts, at a price never dreamed of before for these kind of types.
Thousands of satisfied owners, private users or professionals,
casually use The 50 Fonts pack , Volume 1, to enhance the
originality and quality of their productions.
All these fonts come in True-Type or Adobe format, ready to use on
your system.
A FONT TREASURE CHEST for the font-conscious computerist ! Many of
the foreign fonts enclosed in the 50 Fonts Pack, Volume 1, are
provided as a sample, and do not come with the special data entry
tools required for regular data entry. However, they could be quite
usual for occasional use, or business cards !
The 50 Fonts, Volume 2
----------------------
Brand new creations, you will definitely not find elsewhere. Every
one of these types has been patiently crafted to perfection, to make
sure it fits perfectly into your documents. Each of them could cost
hundreds from other software houses. Some of these fonts will make
you the most original computerist around, enhance your presentations
or reports, and make sure your work is properly rewarded. When
others will dully use old desktop publishing, flash them real
originality.
THE KIDS' TREASURE
------------------
Apart from Halloween, we have created a wealth of other original,
educational and fun fonts.
DinosoType has been a constant success among youngsters of all ages,
since it's release. Many book writers and journalists have been
interested in DinosoType, because it is quite a new approach to
getting pictures to the printer, and also to get kids interested
into computer, through something maybe a little more intelligent
than the usual "shoot'em-up", as nice as they where.
We received many suggestions as where to go from that, and lots of
support from our customers. Thank you to all.
The Kid's treasure chest contains our best toys for children of all
ages, which should help them discover better the fantastic world of
computing.
- DinosoType : real dinosaurs replace characters A-Z, 0-9 and a-z.
Set your application program to very large letters, and what you
type materialize as beautifully scary creatures, ready to jump on
your printer for collages, coloring, mobile creations, and so on.
These pictures are scientifically accurate, and could be used for
natural science, although a few Barney's like friends are also
present.
- Mister Potato : this font is one of the most original treasures of
the chest. You first enter the face you want on the screen, Mr.
Cauliflower, Mr. Potato, Mr. Pumpkin, etc., and then add his eyes,
arms, legs, hat, etc. A ton of fun for one or several children, who
will have hours of fun creating new characters, and play with the
printouts to create cardboard figures, mobiles, or masks.
- Alphabetizer : A as Ant, B as Bear, C as Cat, the complete
alphabet is represented here, together with it's signifying words,
and amazingly cute drawings. Really attractive, and original text
books can be generated with this amazing novelty, a grand classic
revisited. Great too for letterheads, postcards, fairy books and
lots of other marvelous projects
- Norman Prince : although there is a wealth of "script" fonts
around, none of them take into account the needs of young children,
which is to have an accurate representation of each character, as
well as a style closer to their calligraphic abilities. Here is a
very nice script font, resembling very well an excellent pupil's
work. You may love it for creating children's books, as well.
- Nahkt hieroglyphs : the mysteries of ancient Egypt are many, and
so fascinating for any age. One the most ancient civilizations has
brought to us one of the most interesting ways of writing, through
figurative symbols and icons. Write your name in hieroglyphs, as
simply as you type it in. Tell stories as the ancient scribes did,
during the Pharaoh's era. Enrich your history reports with exclusive
notes in hieroglyphs.
- Halloween : do you remember the "scary" letters often used for
posters around the holidays ? Here they are, ready to jump into
your computer. Skeletons, witches, and all sorts of scary things to
write very scary letters !
Each of these fonts is a real marvel of educational fun for a kid.
Hours of intelligent discoveries and mind exercise. Help in the
development of his mental and graphic skills.
