This is the final version of RHYOLITE VERTICAL. Those who have registered their copy of the previous Type 1 or TrueType versions are automatically registered for this version. Rhyolite Vertical (based on Huxley Vertical) is a TrueType-compatible display typeface in uppercase characters, numerals, and punctuation only. There are alternate characters for the letters A, K, M, N, W, and Y, and they can be found using their lowercase equivalents. It was created entirely with Letraset’s FontStudio 2.0 (release version). It is a display face that is tall and very thin, and looks elegant and distinguished.
DESIGNSTUDIO AND READY,SET,GO! USERS:
DesignStudio and Ready,Set,Go! may not always display and print special alternate characters in a FontStudio font. Both page-layout applications default to the standard Symbol characters if the upper register of ASCII characters is mapped differently from the standard font map.
The solution (using Apple's ResEdit utility) is as follows:
1. Launch ResEdit and open a copy of the DesignStudio (or RSG) application (Never work on the original!).
2. Locate the STR# resource and open it.
3. Open STR# 556.
4. Click on the last row of asterisks in the lower left of the window. A rectangle will appear around the asterisks.
5. Select NEW (or Insert New Field(s) if you are using ResEdit 2.0 or later) from the File menu and then click the pointer in the new font name entry area that appears and type the unique font name the unique font name in this area. You must enter the unique font name exactly. Character for character, spelling, correct upper and lowercase usage, and spacing between words is crucial.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 (always clicking on the current last row of asterisks) for each font for which you need the special (option or option-shift) characters properly displayed and printed.
7. When you are done adding all the font names to the program, choose Quit from the File menu and then click Yes to save the changes.
DesignStudio (or RSG) should now properly display and print the special characters for each font whose name you've added to the program using this procedure.
