All of the images in these alphabet files have been designed so that perfect alignment among letters, numbers, punctuation marks and symbols within a single alphabet can be achieved simply by placing the images as inline graphics in sequence     as in the example above from the Arial alphabet files. This display was achieved using the following simple HTML code: <img src="arial/ar_i02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_n02.gif"> &nbsp; &nbsp; <img src="arial/ar_s02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_e02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_q02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_u02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_e02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_n02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_c02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_e02.gif"> <img src="arial/ar_!.gif"> Note that closer spacing can be achieved between letters if the entire sequence is kept on one long line of code as in the example below     because no extraneous spaces are added by the browser. The capitals can be placed at the beginning of text blocks for a decorative effect as in the example below ow is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. Every good boy deserves fun. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. This is done by using the align=absmiddle argument in the <img src= command line. For some initials it may be necessary to crop the space left for the descenders at the bottom of the image for precise alignment if this is necessary or desired. Finally, any image can be placed in the interior of a text line as in the example below Now is the time for good men to come to the aid of their country. This is done using the align=absmiddle argument in the <img src= command line. Again, precise alighment may require truncation of image files.
