- Chili Pepper
- A Type 1 Postscript font by Meg Hamel
-
- This font is based on one called "Flash," but I renamed it because
- Flash is also the name of a typeface similar to Dom Casual. Chili
- Pepper is slanted to the right and has bold slashes of black and
- white, creating a textured, toothy look.
-
- The font consists of 26 upper case letters. The lower case letters
- are the same as the upper case, but reduced by 25%. This makes it
- easy to use different sized letters without changing point size.
- All other characters have been replaced with a period.
-
- This font was created using Publisher's Typefoundry. I had a hard
- time trying to get the spacing & kerning to look right, so I
- recommend that you use this font with software that gives you
- control over the kerning. However, because this is such an unusual
- font, you probably won't want to use it for much text. Try using
- it for large, inset dropcaps, or maybe as part of a logo. The
- numerals could be very effective for numbered text.
-
- This is my first publicly released font, and I have no idea where
- the bugs may be (other than the spacing mentioned above). It looks
- fine using Adobe Type Manager.
-
- 1) If it doesn't work for you or if a character looks funny,
- please let me know. Maybe we can fix it and get a new release out.
- This might also keep me from repeating a mistake on my next
- typeface.
-
- 2) If you change it, please let me know so I can see your
- improvements, etc. This will also allow me to get a better copy
- distributed to everyone.
-
- 3) Don't sell this font, or include it in any package that is
- sold. I don't charge for it, so why should anyone else?!
-
- ****************************************************************
- Chili Pepper is "tradeware" -- I'll give you this font in exchange
- for:
-
- 1) Information about how it works/doesn't work with different
- software.
-
- 2) A Type 1 font of your OWN creation.
-
- 3) A sample of whatever project you created using Chili Pepper
- (brochure, newsletter, t-shirt, solid gold anything).
-
- 4) $5.
-
- 5) Your undying admiration for all the hard work I put into it.
