- GENERAL OVERVIEW
-
- FontLoader is a LaserJet soft font loader that can rotate, scale, mirror,
- reverse, and fix the pitch of fonts on the fly. It runs under MS-DOS/PC-DOS.
- FontLoader can create new fonts or minimize the number of fonts you need to
- keep on your hard disk.
-
- FontLoader is useful, even with programs that come with fonts and load them
- automatically, due to its font effects. The effects include white on black,
- outlines, mirror, and upside down. Registered users receive shadows,
- floating shadows, and over twenty weight effects including horizontal,
- vertical, and slanted stripes. Outlines, shadows, and weights can all be
- combined to produce some stunning effects.
-
