[comp.sys.mac] Attaching bitmapped fonts to Postscript fonts

dmr@csli.STANFORD.EDU (Daniel M. Rosenberg) (01/29/89)

Thanks to those who replied to my previous requests about fonts.
I'm almost there. I managed to lay my hands on independent copies
of a bitmapped and a Postscript (downloadable) version of a font.
Naturally, what I want to happen is that whenever I print a document
with the screen font, the Postscript font gets downloaded.

Looking around with ResEdit, it seems as if the name of the download
file is stuck on the end of the width tables. Of course, my orphan
screen font doesn't have the name of its download file there.
How do I put it there safely? Is there some offset in the FOND
resource that has to be set correctly, and then I put the filename
in the tables at that point?

Thanks,
