I've tried Berkeley fonts. I've tried Hershey fonts. Both (especially Hershey) are good in their place: reasonably small output sizes. But to get good filled fonts for large titles, etc, it looks like I need to find a source for outlined-font definitions (where the line segments for a glyph describe the outline of the glyph, with pointers to the extra polygon(s) that describe interior islands ('R') or exterior islands ('i'). Can anybody direct me to a source for any fonts like this? Public Domain is preferred. Purchasable is ok. Thousands of dollars is pretty ridiculous. Please mail responses. If there is interest, I'll post a summary. If necessary, I'll start up round two of the Usenet Font Consortium (round one got us the Hershey fonts on mod.sources). -- OOO __| ___ Peter Holzmann, Octopus Enterprises OOOOOOO___/ _______ USPS: 19611 La Mar Court, Cupertino, CA 95014 OOOOO \___/ UUCP: {hplabs!hpdsd,pyramid}!octopus!pete ___| \_____ Phone: 408/996-7746
