9/23/90 I am compelled to port Middleton by Jon Hodges to the Windows platform. Enclosed in this archive you will find a .wfn file for use in CorelDraw along with screen fonts and .pfb and .pfm files for use with Windows 3.0 and 2.0. This incarnation of Middleton is a Type 1 PostScript font for use with the bundled PS driver. You will also find a PageMaker 3.01 publication which you should print to determine the mapping and how Middleton sets. I do this is memory of a close friend I lost to cancer and hope you will find it in your heart to contribute to this worthy cause. Please respect the wishes of Jon Hodges the designer of Middleton. For Pam with love, Steve Steve Shubitz Published Perfection! 7486 La Jolla Blvd. #552 La Jolla CA. 92037 (619) 546-9309 CIS PPN 72047,3402 ******************************************************************************************** Middleton is an unabashed knockoff of Florentine, a display face created by R. Hunter Middleton, the former director of type design for Ludlow. During his lifetime, Middleton created some 90 faces primarily for the advertising community, including the popular face Radiant. As far as I have been able to determine. Florentine is a registered trademark of T.J. Lyons, which in turn has licensed the face to a variety of vendors such as Linotype and VGC. This font is being released as freeware to the typesetting community. However, it can only be uploaded onto electronic bulletin boards with my permission. On CompuServe, this font is exclusively found on the DTPFORUM -- under no circumstances is this font to be loaded onto any other CIS forum. Middleton is released in memory of Michael DeCrescente, the former general manager of Characters Typographical Services, Inc., who died of cancer in 1989. A contribution to the American Cancer Society is always appreciated. Notification of any problems with the font or requests for its upload on other bulletin boards can be made to: Jon Hodges 24-32 26th Street Astoria, NY 11102 CIS #76276,3102 Please be aware that I am still philosophically wrestling with the whole issue of font knockoffs, so grab the face now. If and when Florentine is released commercially, I may decide the pull the font off the boards.
