This disk consists of 30+ custom fonts for you to
use in your own programs or other programs such as
Dpaint 2 etc.
Because Dpaint can only read about 18 fonts at a
time without commiting hari-kari I have renamed
the ones I don't use often, so forcing Dpaint
just to read my particular favourites.
E.g. Didn't want the TOPAZ font, so...
In the FONTS directory...
Renamed Topaz.font to Topaz.fon
(Hacked the 't' off!)
Result: It becomes invisible to Dpaint.
Obviously if you want Dpaint to read it again, you
must rename it TOPAZ.font
All the fonts are standard format and you should have no
problems using them in other programs.
NB. Dpaint grabs it's fonts from the first disk booted so
you had better boot this disk then load Dpaint from Workbench.
Dpaint will ask for the font disk to be inserted as and when it's
needed. (2 drive users are laughing otherwise its swappity-swap)
Also on this disk is a font changing program.
(Non-CLI users can skip the next few lines if they wish)
Executed from CLI only.
Syntax: Changefnt FONTNAME.font
Where FONTNAME is the font's title E.g. Erics
I have used this program on the startup-sequence.
The font will replace the standard TOPAZ 8 font.
