Shareware DeskJet Soft Font Package
This Shareware package contains everything you need to get started with
soft fonts on a DeskJet EXCEPT the RAM cartridge. The package contains a
number of soft fonts for the DeskJet printer, along with a soft font down-
loader, a font display program, a utility that examines public domain soft
fonts, and printer drivers for: WordPerfect 5.1 & 5.0, MS Word 5.X, MS
Works, PC Write, & Windows info. It also contains a tutorial that explains
the basics of using soft fonts. If you use this package beyond the 20 day
trial period you are expected to register (pay for) it. Registration is
$25. The install program will even print a registration form for you.
WARNING, YOU CAN NOT USE SOFT FONTS WITH A DESKJET UNLESS YOU HAVE AT LEAST
ONE 128K RAM CARTRIDGE. RAM CARTRIDGES DO NOT COME WITH THE DESKJET. YOU
MUST BUY THEM AS AN EXTRA COST OPTION! DESKJET PLUS & 500 OWNERS SHOULD
PURCHASE A 256K RAM CARTRIDGE, WHILE DESKJET OWNERS SHOULD GET A 128K RAM
CARTRIDGE.
We think this package of soft fonts, utilities and printer drivers is a
very reasonably priced set. No support for these fonts, driver, or util-
ities is offered to non-registered users. To register fill out the
enclosed form (REGISTER.DOC) and send it along a payment of $25 to:
Elfring Soft Fonts, P.O. Box 61, Wasco, IL 60183. 708-377-3520 We accept
checks (payable in US funds and drawn on a US bank), VISA, MC, or cash.
When you register we will send you a disk of additional DeskJet soft fonts,
a current catalog of our DeskJet soft fonts and products, and offer you full
telephone support.
This package contains an installation program (INSTALL) that will copy and
unpack all self-extracting libraries found on this disk. Be sure to read
any matching documentation once you have installed the fonts and printer
drivers. To run INSTALL just type the disk drive the disk is in followed by
the word INSTALL.
This Disk Contains
Believe it or not, this disk contains 18 soft fonts for the HP DeskJet,
plus printer drivers and instructions for a number of application
programs. It also contains three soft font utility programs: DOWNLOAD for
sending soft fonts to your printer, FONTINFO for examining soft fonts, and
DISPFONT for printing sample sheets of soft fonts. Most of these files
are stored in a compressed format to save room- the soft fonts alone take
up 240K when unpacked!

USING SOFT FONTS
Before your application program can use soft fonts, it needs information
about those fonts! Specifically, no application program can use a font
unless it knows how to select the font and (for proportionally spaced
fonts) the width of each character in the font. THIS IS WHAT THE ENCLOSED
PRINTER DRIVERS ARE FOR! If you have an application program that is not
covered by a driver in this set, give us a call. We can make drivers for
WordStar 5.0 - 6.0, WordStar 2000, Q&A, plus a few other word processors.
All soft fonts have been specially altered to work with Windows 3.0. Thus
you can now use these fonts with PageMaker! Just install the fonts into
the Windows environment with the tools supplied with Windows 3.0.
