Fonts? Phooey!: I've figured out how to use FF to install a font as my default font. However, the only font I have with the IBM extended character set is "proportional" and FF doesn't like it. I don't have SETFONT, so I'm up a cable without a connector. :-) Could someone please mail me either SETFONT or a font (size 8) that works with FF and has the IBM extended character set? Hey, I'd almost settle for a font editor...

FF is wrong - I know, I had this same problem. What I did was load the font in question into FED, make sure it was fixed_width (which it was already), save it again (didn't bother changing the name), then ran FixFonts on it. FF worked like a charm after that with it. C-A: does anybody know why FF does this? - R'ykandar. -- | R'ykandar Korra'ti, Editor, LOW ORBIT | phoenix@ms.uky.edu | CIS 72406,370 | | Elfinkind, Unite! | phoenix@ukma.bitnet | PLink: Skywise | QLink: Bearclaw |
