I have now got too many fonts to all fit onto one floppy disc. I have seen a number of references implying that you can set the variable <Font$Path> to search more than one directory. I have tried to set it to search more than one disk, but without success. Is this actually possible and if so, how? Liam Corner zenith@uk.ac.warwick.cs csubt@uk.ac.warwick.cu

If someone outthere wants to use his Type 1 PostScript fonts on the Archimedes, he can contact me. ferdinand. email: neabbs!ferdo@nluug.nl

What a weird posting! Of course we all want to know - tell us how!
Do you mean you've hacked code to turn a Type I font into a RISC OS
outline font? If yes, it would make a great comp.sources.acorn posting...

What I *really* want is a PostScript driver which will download fonts if they don't exist on the printer. *That* would be useful! Ug!

That's why I want a driver which will download the fonts that aren't there. That way I can tell the driver which fonts the printer has, and the rest it will download. If Apple can do it, why can't Acorn? Ug!
