- Jerome Walsh mentioned the ability to change fonts in a font pool, and ,
- though I was not a beta tester, I have found that this capability exists,
- though I will not vouch for how well it works since I have not actually tried
- it. In any case, under the "edit" menu choose "alphabets" and near the bottom
- of the list is an option, the name of which I don't remember, but it is
- fairly obvious by its name that its purpose is to change the characters in
- a font pool. Once you choose this option you are given a list of the font
- pools. Choose the one you want to edit. My guess from here is that you place
- the cursor on a character you want to replace, then choose the option, listed
- at the bottom of the window, to view inventory and page through the list
- until you find the character you want. Select that character, and pick the
- option that seems most likely to copy that character into the font set.
-
- I'm sorry if this is a little vague, like I say I've only looked at it, but
- never done it. If anyone knows what file(s) one should back up to recover
- from any messes that one might make that would be helpful to know.
-
- Good luck, I for one would be interested to hear if you succeed!
