Anyway, I'm looking for a font editor. This should preferably be PD, hopefully with source. I want to edit LaserJet fonts, but if source is available, I'd be grateful for any type of an editor. If I can't find one, I expect I'll write one. In this case, I would like to know what features a font editor should have. How should it operate? What display adapters would _need_ to be supported? Mouse or keyboard? How big a font would it need to be able to handle? Is it possible to automatically italicize or bold a font so that it'll look OK? I would also appreciate descriptions of any commercial font editors that you have used, as well as comments on their advantages/disadvantages. Also, I'm pleased to see that despite the mims-iris font archive only having a few utilities so far, there have already been a large number of FTP connections. I'm glad somebody has use for them! I will appreciate any responses! \tom haapanen "now, you didn't really expect tom@mims-iris.waterloo.edu my views to have anything to do watmims research group with my employer's, did you?" university of waterloo Amount taken in the average bak robbery in Canada in 1988: $ 4,000 In the average computer fraud in the same period: $ 42,000 -Report on Business Magazine, Sept/89
