This is the demo of PowerFonts 1.0.
Introduction
With the introduction of AmigaDos2.04(tm), the Agfa®
Intellifont® scaling technology is included in the system. Now
all software applications that use Amiga system fonts can take
advantage of the the Intellifont font scaling technology. High
quality fonts for your screen and printer output are now
available.
However, most three-dimensional applications are not capable of
converting fonts into them lovely shiny letters you often see
on television. Since animators want to use letters more and
more, RGB Software has developed a software application called
PowerFonts. It is capable of converting the Agfa Intellifont
Scalable Typefaces into high quality three-dimensional objects
which you may use immediately in you 3D rendering application.
You may also use some tools implemented in the program to give
the 3D letters something extra. The features that are
available:
* Beveling. You may specify the bevel-width as well as the
bevel-depth.
* Italicize the letters in both directions, forwards and
backwards.
* Stretch the letters or make them more narrow.
* Extrude the letters to almost any depth.
* Vary the kern width.
* You may alter the colors of the different polygons in the 3D
objects.
* Just enter the sentence you want and PowerFonts will convert
it automatically.
* You may smooth the curved sections in a letter.
* Before saving them to disk PowerFonts can show the letters in
3D.
* You have 10 buffers at your disposal which are saved to disk.
The buffers hold all the information about colors, beveling
parameters, extrusion-depth etcetera. They may also be saved
to disk.
This demo version may be freely spread.
