[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Okidata Laserline 6 Character Fonts

josephs@ttidca.TTI.COM (Bill Josephs) (07/30/87)

I just bought an OKIDATA Laserline 6 and I couldn't be happier.  But,
one thing perplexes me: I've called OKIDATA and they tell me that the
width tables for their resident fonts are proprietary information.
Why?  Wouldn't freely releasing such information make their product
more usable (or am I being too naive)?  Does anyone have width tables 
for the non-HP fonts (the Helvetica and normal TMS ROMAN are exactly like 
their HP cousins -- for which width tables are readily available)?  
Can some kind soul point me to the information (or send me mail?).

Thanks in advance.
