New Fonts for Windows
by Bill Sellers

This set  of fonts  for Microsoft  Windows is based on the public domain
Table of  Coordinates for  Hershey's Repertory  of Occidental Type Fonts
and Graphic  Symbols. This  dataset is  not particularly useful since it
was first published in 1967 before the days when everyone started coding
characters in  some variant  of ASCII. It is also not in any format that
anyone actually  uses. However, the typefaces themselves are very pretty
with no  less than  three different  types of  Gothic font, and they are
coded as  vector fonts  which allow  them to  be easily scaled with very
little loss in quality.

Windows handles  vector fonts very nicely. It faithfully reproduces them
in any size and on any printer and as a bonus, for once, what you see on
the screen is what you get on the printout. But converting the font data
to  a   windows  font   file  is  monstrous  (well  it  is  without  any
documentation of the file format!).

To cut  a long  story short,  these font  files work with windows. Or at
least they  work with  Windows Paint,  PC Paintbrush,  and Micrographics
Designer so  I have every reason to believe that they will work with any
windows application  that uses  the windows  vector fonts.  You need  to
install them like any other windows fonts:

        Start up windows.

        Start up CONTROL.EXE

        In the INSTALLATION menu, select Add New Font

        Follow the instructions....

        You are  asked to select the directory containing the fonts. The
        default is  the root  directory for  drive A:. Put the disk with
        the fonts in drive A: and click on OK.

        Select the font you want to install from the list.

        You are  then asked  to select  a destination  directory for the
        fonts. The windows directory is the default. Click on OK to copy
        the font file.

        Repeat as necessary to install the fonts you want.


The fonts available on this disk are as follows:

GothIT - Letters and numbers for Italian gothic.
GreekS - 24 greek characters in upper and lower case (single lined).

The above fonts contain the standard ASCII sets of punctuation from
32 to 127
