- The Font Palette which comes with OS/2 2.0 gives examples of the font.
- Simply double click on the font name to bring up the font editor.
-
- Once a font is installed, you can use it in the "e" editor. To view
- all the characters in that font, you can create a document with all
- the characters in it. Edit the document, then select the desired font
- to see what the characters look like.
-
- I agree that a utility specifically designed for that purpose would be
- nice, but these work-arounds should be usable.
