Pecan Slobodka Cyrillic
A PC Shareware Typeface
Slobodka is a Cyrillic typeface in a "Romanesque" style. Stylistically, it
most most closely resembles (and looks good with) Times-Roman, medium weight.
Slobodka is named after the European Yeshiva which produced many of the
gedolim and roshei yeshiva responsible for the growth of Torah in America.
Included in this archive are bitmap fonts for the HP Laserjet printer in 6, 8,
10, 12, 14 and 24 point sizes. Screen fonts in these sizes for Xerox Ventura
Publisher are also included.
We've also supplied a Postscript version of the typeface, as well as Ventura
width tables for Laserjet and Postscript.
Slobodka has been tested with Ventura, in both Postscript and HP versions. You
should be able to use the typeface in other PC applications, that support
these printers, however.
These are the specific files:

INSTALLATION AND USE
--------------------
To install Slobodka for use with Ventura, copy the EGA files to your VENTURA
directory. If you're using a Laserjet, copy the .SFP files and SLOBO-HP.WID to
your VENTURA directory, as well (you can discard the .PFA file and the other
.WID file). If you're using a Postscript printer, copy SLOBODKA.PFA to your
VENTURA\PSFONTS directory, and copy SLOBO-PS.WID to your VENTURA directory
(you can discard the .SFP files and the other .WID file).
Start Ventura and, from the Options menu, select "Add/Remove Fonts". Click on
"Merge Width Tables" and select the width table you just copied to your
VENTURA directory. The font is now installed.
You use Slobodka just as you would use any other downloadable font.
