Subject: A List Of HP LaserJet Font Cartridges
Newsgroups: comp.laser-printers,comp.sys.ibm.pc

Does anyone have a list of the LaserJet font cartridges that are available,
and what fonts are in each?  I believe there is also a 25-in-1 font
cartridge available as well.

I'm considering purchase of a LaserJet (in spite of my emotional 
attachment to the flexibility of PostScript), and I want to make
sure that there is adequate font support before I take the plunge.

There are dozens of typefaces available for the LJ in cartridges.

There are hundreds of typefaces available for the LJ in soft font
format.  Typically, the soft fonts are produced by a font scaler
from an outline description of the typeface.  Bitstream, SWFTE,
and Digi-fonts are the ones I'm familiar with.  This lets you use
any size font, not just the sizes in a cartridge.  The drawback
is downloading time.  Some WP and typesetting software (not ours!)
isn't smart enough to download only the glyphs that are actually
used, and instead download the whole font.

HP sells both carts and soft fonts (no scaler) of high quality,
and even higher price (given the low cost of the LJ).

Digi-fonts is interesting, because they sell some 260 odd typefaces
for about $350 for the entire libary.  I've got Bitstream, the first
release of SWFTE's typefaces, and the first release of Digi-fonts.
Bitstream is the best looking, followed by Digi-fonts, followed by
SWFTE.  Both SWFTE and Digi-fonts have released second versions
of the typefaces, so the quality rankings may have changed.  The
original SWFTE scaler was also somewhat buggy.

I think SWFTE also has the capability to generate the fonts
on-the-fly for a number of DOS based WP programs.

      There is even a cartridge called the "Super Cartridge" or something
  that has 50 or so fonts. I beleive they advertise as having every single
  HP font. If you have a need for many many fonts this would be the way
  to go. I don't have to tell you what purchasing all the HP fonts would
  cost, not to mention the pain of always swapping them. :-)

OK, I've seen enough Here-say:

Pacific Data Products make a 25-in-1 cartridge that contains all the fonts
from the HP line. 104 all together.  There are several very nice fonts.

My only gripe is that they only provide (as HP does) extended fonts
at 10cpi (ie the ones that have the PC-graphics and line-drawings
characters in them) and not at 12cpi.

If people would like I will upload the font names and point sizes.

I also have lots of Public Domain / Shareware soft-fonts I would
like to trade.  Interested send email.

An MD friend of mine in starting to write a heavily referenced book on
nutritional medicine and needs advise on software options.  He has a
PC-XT at home and an AT clone with a 40Meg disk and color monitor at
his office.  He currently uses a simple screen editor for text
"processing" and a 24 pin dot matrix printer for output.

His immediate goal is to find reference database software and in-text
citation programs with features similar to refer or bibtex.  He currently
uses BRS and has a large personal library of medical books and journals
which he would eventually like to incorporate into a coherent reference
database for use in his writing.

Any advise about software options for technical medical writing using
his current hardware would be greatly appreciated.  Software that is
easy to learn and use is critical.  Descriptions of the personal tools
and methodologies used by technical writers on the net (particularly
sci.med types) would most be helpful.

(The ability to handle mathematics, tables, figures, footnotes and cross
references will likely be required in the future.  Migration to a
desktop publishing environment is being contemplated and DP system
suggestions (both hardware and software) would also be welcomed.)

Thank you.

Your colleague might want to consider using bibIX, a bibliographic database
and text formatter for the UNIX environment.  However, this DOES assume that
he will be using UNIX (easily done with hsi present hardware), and (a more
stringent requirement) the troff text formatter.

Given that troff is a proven entity in the field of
book production (a recent example: the book on 4.3 BSD by Quarterman et al.),
and can handle equations, figures, etc., this would not
be a bad decision in any event.  After the advance disclosure that I am the
principal author of bibIX, I can proceed to write that I do think it
superior in functionality of any other such system of which I am aware,
certainly including refer, bib, BibTeX, and the plethora of commercial
systems.  I append a description.  It is in widespread use, including here
at UCSF, at UC Berkeley, at Rockefeller Univ., MITRE Corp., and elsewhere.
Given that it was developed within a medical environment, it has a proven
record in dealing with the sort of formatting needs your colleague has.
I wish him luck in settling on a final system.

Cheerio, Rick Rodgers

*
********************************************************************************
*
*  SECTION 1: GENERAL DESCRIPTION
*
*  BibIX is a suite of C programs and UNIX scripts which allows the creation
*  and manipulation of bibliographic databases.  The program bib allows
*  formatted citations and their corresponding references to be inserted
*  into a text file which can then be printed using the n/troff text
*  formatting programs.  As such, it is a preprocessor for the n/troff
*  system, much like pic, eqn, and tbl.
*
*  Other programs in the suite (bibcheck, bibtext) check for (and often
*  automatically correct) common errors which would otherwise interfere with
*  the proper functioning of bib, or facilitate the creation and manipulation
*  of reference databases.  The script bibstyle allows a user to describe a
*  formatting style for citations and references.  The script called bibroff
*  provides a facility for automatic invokation of required n/troff
*  preprocesors, and then writes a Bourne shell script which will automatically
*  assemble a finished document, invoking any required pro-processors,
*  including chem, pic, bib, lbl, tbl, eqn, and psfig (sometimes helpful for
*  beginners or complex documents).  A database of over 6600 journal
*  titles and their ANSI abbreviations has been incorporated into the system,
*  allowing browsing and automatic title abbreviation.  A script (bibabb)
*  is also provided for abbreviating titles "on the fly" using a dictionary
*  of abbreviations.  The script bibpun restores terminal periods to
*  abbreviations in journal titles.  A utility for reformatting references
*  obtained from on-line bibliographic searches is provided (bibformat), as
*  is a hyphenation correction utility (bibhyphen) which is of general
*  use for n/troff, quite independently of its role in bibIX.
*
*  BibIX is accompanied by a 100+ page Users/Programmers Manual, which includes
*  a one-page Quick Reference Guide.  The package is provided with sixteen
*  generic citation/reference formatting styles and many styles for specific
*  publications.  The formatting is MUCH more flexible and reliable than with
*  the earlier refer and bib systems; the style of citation markers in
*  the text and of the printed references (printed as either footnotes or
*  endnotes) is easily modifed to accomodate virtually any publication.
*  Appendices in the document gives clear instructions about writing
*  new style macros.  During five years of use, the package has proven to be
*  remarkably reliable and flexible, and is in wide use for the preparation of
*  grant proposals, theses, and manuscripts.

It seems that I need a utility that will scan an on-screen TEXT file (std
MS DOS environment) and create a GRAPHIC image of the onscreen text.

What I need to do is generate graphic images of screen appearance for
inclusion in a manual, typeset in Ventura.  Of several utilities availble
for screen capture (Pub Paintbrush, Dan Bricklin's Demo, Storyboard, and
others include screen capture tools), they ALL seem to EITHER (a) capture
GRAPHICS images [but I've got TEXT images], OR (b) capture TEXT images in
TEXT format [which is NOT what I need], but NONE seem to allow the capture
of a TEXT screen to be stored in a graphics file format.

I require a graphics image because Ventura will then allow me to scale it
to fit the frame which is allocated for it.  The screen in TEXT format is
THEORETICALLY usable, but would involve LOTS of tedious tagging etc of EACH
of many screen captures to get everything to line up correctly.

I don't IMAGINE that such a thing would be all that hard to do, but I'm not
an programmer.  It would seem to me that a utility would simply have to scan
the screen pixel by pixel and save what it finds in some std graphics
format.  Is it more complex than this?

Regardless of the complexity, does anybody know of a program that will
do what i need?

THANKS

Once upon a time (1985 :-) when I was still studying mathematled "SIGNUM!"
( really SIGNUM!2 in the meantime ) and runs (exclusively) on any Atari ST.

( I know that this machine has a 'games only' image in the US and lacks
professional support - in Germany the situation is very different - , but 
when the software was designed,
we expacted it would be more expensive than the hardware anyway,
so Franz selected the machine most suitable for this kind of

Hi, all

Does anyone know if I can get outline fonts and shadow fonts in
Ventura?  I am using my laser writer plus printer.  Do I need to buy
these fonts from a third party vendor and add them to ventura?  In
wordperfect or word, both fonts are selectable, now why ynot Ventura
Publisher???

THANKS

Leung
