Does anybody know how I could use the Berkeley Font Catalog with Adobes Transcript package. Also has anybody ever converted the Berkely Font Catalog to PostScript compatible font info. It seems as if Adobe only lets you use the Times and Helvetica fonts with ptroff. Thanks in advance. Dick Tusia ihnp4!chinet!dat work: 203-767-2601

After seeing the "herps" program for turning the Hershey fonts into PostScript fonts, I feel inspired to try doing the same for vfonts; this would have to generate the .afm font metric file as well, then it could be used with ditroff (there is little or no chance of doing it for use with troff because there are too many wired-in assumptions...). Now where did I put that PostScript CookBook?.... -- William Roberts ARPA: liam@UK.AC.qmc.cs Queen Mary College UUCP: liam@qmc-cs.UUCP LONDON, UK
