URW Font Chart: DeskJet Package ------------------------------------ Copyright 1992 CodeHead Technologies Calligrapher, the Ultimate Writing Machine, has a unique font system which gives you outline font capabilities through GDOS (actually, through a special included version of G+Plus). This system produces excellent output, while providing faster operation than other outline font methods (such as FSMGDOS). The fonts for this system are copyrighted and licensed from the URW font foundry. There are 5 URW typefaces included with Calligrapher and 64 additional fonts available at a retail price of $34.95 per disk. Each disk contains a family of fonts related to a particular typeface. The number of fonts in the family varies from disk to disk, providing a combination of book, bold, italic, and bold italic. The purpose of this font chart package is two-fold. It provides an example of Calligrapher's print quality, and it gives you a sample of the available URW typefaces. The package contains files which allow you to print your own URW font chart on a DeskJet printer. The printout shows each font in its normal typeface with a sampling of the available characters at a point size of 18. Space limitations prohibit the display of the related bold and italic renditions. The first five fonts shown are included with Calligrapher. These URW fonts are equivalent to the following popular fonts: URW: Commonly known as: -------------------------------------- Zurich Helvetica (Swiss) Holland Times Roman Unitype Courier Math Symbols Greek Ornaments Dingbats The rest of the fonts are numbered from 1 to 66 (omitting 11 and 16) and are sold separately. The files included here contain the raw printer data required to create two pages of high resolution graphic output and are therefore quite large. This is necessary in order to give you an accurate representation of the print quality of Calligrapher. These files were created by using the CodeHead RAM Disk's print spooler. This spooler has the ability to capture printer output and save it to disk. Calligrapher was configured to use the DeskJet driver and a document was created within Calligrapher displaying all of the available fonts. The printout you'll get was created entirely by Calligrapher...there were no tricks used other than the capturing of Calligrapher's output in order to save it to disk. Printing the Font Chart ----------------------- Font chart packages are available for other printers, including 9-pin, 24-pin, BubbleJet, HP LaserJet, Atari SLM Laser printers, and possibly others. Check with the source from which you obtained this package for more information. This font chart package may be freely distributed as long as the following files are included and unaltered. It may not be included with any commercial product without the permission of CodeHead Technologies and there may be no restrictions placed on its distribution. Included in this DeskJet package are: DESKJET1.DAT - Page 1 of the font chart DESKJET2.DAT - Page 2 of the font chart URWFONTS.TXT - This text SPOOLMAN.PRG - The Spooler Manager from CodeHead Utilities The DAT files contain raw printer data and can be printed from any utility which will print a file without any translation. One way to print these files is to use the GEM desktop's "print" function, but it must be noted that later versions of TOS will interpret bytes with a value of 8 as tab characters and corrupt the printout by adding spaces. To provide a proven method for printing these raw printer files, we've included the Spooler Manager from our CodeHead Utilities package. Although this program is copyrighted by Codehead Software and may not be altered in any way, we hereby present it as freeware and it may be distributed freely. As an added extra, this version (v1.1) fixes problems that version 1.0 had with the TT (which would cause a crash if there were not exactly 4 meg of ST RAM). To print the files, simply run SPOOLMAN.PRG (it also works as an accessory by changing its extension to ACC), select "Print a File", and locate the DAT file you wish to print. Spooler Manager will ask you how many copies you wish to print (enter 1) and whether you want a formfeed after each page (select None). You do not need to have a printer spooler installed in order to print the font chart. After printing the first page, you can repeat the process for the second page. This printout should work on all DeskJet printers but there's no way we can guarantee that it will. NOTE: MaxiFile's print feature also translates tab characters and will not correctly print these DAT files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Suggested list prices: ---------------------- Calligrapher Professional: $175.00 Calligrapher Gold: $250.00 Gold Extension: $100.00 (updates Professional to Gold) URW Font Disks: $34.95 each The Calligrapher line of products is available from: CodeHead Technologies P.O.
