  These Bengali fonts (I named them as Sonar Gaon)
  works with Microsoft WINDOWS and its applications.
  In order to use the Sonar Gaon (and other) Bengali
  fonts, you must have the WINDOWS installed.

1. Install windows (version 2 or higher or windows/286
   or windows 3.x) in a directory called windows. 
   (Windows setup program automatocally proposes this 
   name during installation). Select HP Series II laser 
   printer during the installation.

2. Create a directory called "arfonts" by using
   the following DOS command at the DOS prompt:

   c>md arfonts ΔΩ (ΔΩ = enter)

3. Make the arfonts as the default directory:

   c>cd\arfonts ΔΩ

4. Copy all files from the font disk labeled arfonts
   to the directory arfonts:

   copy a:*.* ΔΩ

   These files include printer font files (*.sc*) and
   other utilities.

5. Start installation of the Bengali fonts by using
   the command:

   bipw3 ΔΩ

   At the menu screen, change the defaults as necessary.
   The program will create matching screen fonts 
   corresponding to each printer font being installed
   depending on the choices made at the menu screen,
   for example, wheather the graphics adapter is a
   CGA or VGA etc.

6. Note that the installation program assumes that
   the fonts are being installed for a HP series II or III
   laser printer. If you want to chose HP LaserJet +, 
   you can do that by hitting 'P' while in the installation 
   menu. However, these fonts were created for and tested 
   on a HP series II and compatible printers. Equal 
   result should be obtainable with any laser printer 
   that is HP series II compatible and configured as HP II.

7. Once installation is complete, start windows'
   wordprocessing program "write" by using the command:

   win write ΔΩ

8. While in 'write', Bengali font(s) of different point
   size can be chosen from the 'character', 'Font' menu:

   In write use: alt+C+F (or appropriate menu selection
   by mouse) to choose desired font.

   For more information about using WRITE consult windows 
   manual.

 * Note that the Bengali Charter has 3 point sizes:
     10, 18 and 26. These point sizes should actually be
     12, 18 and 28 points.

 ** Once the fonts are installed for windows, any windows
      application can use them. For example, PageMaker, 
      Microsoft Word for Windows, Microsoft Excel, etc.
