Andromeda is a Type 1 postscript typeface designed for use with the Macintosh computer and any Postscript¿ Compatible printer. It is also Adobe Type Manager (ATM) compatible. Andromeda is also hinted to optomize output on 300 dpi or less printers.
Andromeda is a complete typeface, consisting of Upper and Lower case, special characters, numbers and diacriticals.
ABOUT ANDROMEDA
I designed Andromeda as a futuristic typeface. My concept was "how would an OCR typeface look in about one hundred years". While I think in about a hundred years computers will be able to read about anything that is written, I wrote it anyway.
INSTALLING ANDROMEDA
Installing Andromeda is quite easy, simply copy the file ╥Andro╙ into your system folder. After that install the fonts contained in the file ╥Andromeda.Bmap╙ into your system file or into a suitcase file using Font/DA Mover. If you have any questions using Font/DA Mover consult the Users manual that came with your Macintosh.

If you find that this package is useful to you, please send me $10.00 (U.S. Funds) to the address listed at the bottom of this document. By sending in the shareware fee you become a registered user. This means that should I have any upgrades to the font, or should I release any new fonts or programs I will notify you.
Most upgrades to this font are free of charge, all I ask is that when an upgrade is released, you send me a blank disk, and postage to cover sending the disk back to you. Also, by becoming a registered user, you may use this font in any documents that you create. This is a single use license, if you are going to be using this font on more than one computer, please send in the registration fee for each computer.

You must also make them aware of their shareware obligations. If they like the font then they must also pay the shareware fee.
You cannot sell, rent, or modify this font without asking me permission first. If you are a company that provides PD and Shareware software to the public (i.e. Educorp, Somak Software, etc.), you must include the entire font package. Also, telling me that you have it would be great.
If you find that this package is not to your liking then delete it from your system file and remove any copies (archives included) that you may have.
