- ViewFont.C Version 1.3 Copyright (c) 1989 Jim Bumgardner
-
- First Release (Version 1.2) 11-08-88
-
- Onscreen FONT Viewer for Turbo C (Uses Turbo C Graphics).
- Latest Version may be found on CooperWorks (608-271-3685).
-
- ViewFont C allows you to preview a font on the screen (if you have
- graphics). I use ViewFont in conjunction with FONTFILT (FNTFLT20.ARC),
- to view transformed fonts. It makes font manipulations a lot easier
- and prevents me from wasting paper.
-
- ViewFont works with the Turbo C graphics drivers, and is linked
- with a Hercules, CGA and EGAVGA driver. If you have some other graphics
- system, you will need the corresponding .BGI driver.
-
- ViewFont displays as many characters on the screen as it can fit.
- It positions each one correctly using the left_offset and top_offset
- information in the character header.
-
- Use the arrow keys to see other letters, or type the character that
- you want to see. Hit ESC or CTRL-C quit.
-
-
- Second Release (Version 1.3) 8/25/89
-
- Fixes first release to correctly display fonts on EGA (and hopefully
- VGA) screens. Also adds information about the characters by drawing
- left line, right line, and baseline for each. These fully describe
- the size of the character.
-
- Now included (in addition to the C source) is the (Turbo) assembly
- source for the EGA character output routine and its object code
- (for those without Turbo Assembler.)

- About the Program
- ------------------
- FONTFILT.EXE can perform 11 different transformations on HP Laserjet Fonts.
-
- It is meant to replace the individual filters (MAKESHAD.EXE,
- MAKEHOLL.EXE etc.) distributed in FONTFILT.ARC, FONTFLT2.ARC and
- XFNTFILT.ARC. All the effects available in those programs may be done
- by the program FONTFILT.EXE in this archive. The program is faster,
- and there are no size limitations.
