[comp.text.tex] Wanted: Dolby trademark, CD logo in .mf or .pk

drstrip@intvax.UUCP (David R. Strip) (02/19/91)

Header pretty much says it - can anyone point me to 
a metafont source or a 300dpi pk file containing
the Dolby and CD logos. They would be nice additions
to my cassette labeling.

Here's a dolby symbol, courtesy <amgreene@mit.edu> (he doesn't read
netnews, but asked me to post this when I forwarded your article to
him...)

I was just about to post my nice Dolby symbol, and I see I've been beaten to
it. Oh well, in the interests of healthy competition, here's my version.

PS A. M. Greene: it's bad style to set the mode within the .mf file! :-)

PPS New Year's Resolution (a bit late): I must remember to tell the net what
I've Metafonted, in the hope that other people will do likewise...

I can offer a CD icon in EPSF, Adobe Illustrator format.
Likewise a compact cassette icon.
I'll post them to comp.lang.postscript.

Finally I have a dolby-logo in some Macintosh bitmap format.

Have fun!
