I'm looking for fonts for printing Ada code on my HP LaserJet Plus for
formal documents, foils, and working listings. I'd like something
fairly simple for the program text, say a Helvetica or Roman, and
something a bit more fancy for comment text, possibly a script font.
Both should also come in bold and italic (keywords in bold in the Ada
code, for example). They also should be proportional pitch and come in
12-point size in portrait orientation for documents, 8-point landscape
for printing listings "two-up" (two columns to a page), and 24-point
landscape for projection transparencies.
I can also use 8x9 or 9x12 font files of all of these (code, comment;
normal, bold, italic) for the Hercules Graphics Plus display card. That
would give me a WYSIWYG Ada editor. (FYI, I use the FinalWord II editor
to get filling and justification, hanging indents, tables, symbolic page
references, indexing, spelling correction, and hyphenation in my
comments, as well as continuous prettyprinter formatting of the code.
My programs may not run, but "they sure look good.")
Cartridges, SoftFont disks, font files, and pointers to sources of same,
all gratefully accepted.
