Can anyone point me toward info on how to define and
download a font into an HP LaserJet series II?
(_My_ thought is that something like Fancy Font (tm?)
ought to be used, but it looks like we're going to try
to do it ourselves...)

It requires EGA + EGA monitor, and can be downloaded from: 1-608-271-3685 (at least 1200 Baud, 24 hrs.) The file is called "QEDIT??.ARC" -- I don't know what the current version designation is. They also have several programs which will then download the font you have created, utilities which produce character width tables, etc. Quite a selection of ready-made public domain fonts, also. -- Wolf N.
