- "Foxscript" is a brush display typeface with a handsome and stylish
- character.
-
- This font is shareware. You, or the company for which you work, must
- register any shareware fonts you use as a moral duty, and in order to keep the
- supply of shareware fonts coming. See below for the font price and
- registration address.
-
- This Postscript Type 1 font was created for use on Macintosh systems, and
- was downloaded from a Macintosh/graphic-arts-oriented BBS and converted for
- use on IBM-PC-compatible computers running (1) Windows 3.x or a compatible
- graphical user interface, and (2) Adobe Type Manager or an equivalent font
- manager. Various steps in the conversion process may have involved some or
- all of the following PC utilities:
-
- "Unsit" by Brian Uechi...a PC utility for unarchiving Macintosh
- "StuffIt"-archived files. The Macintosh filename of such an archive
- sometimes ends with an ".sit" suffix. "Unsit" is an invaluable tool for
- working with Macintosh files. (Unfortunately, it will not handle the
- more-recent Deluxe StuffIt format, which can be identified by looking at the
- StuffIt file with an ASCII fileviewer; standard StuffIt files have a
- SIT!SIT! signature within the first few bytes, while Deluxe StuffIt files
- have a SITDSIT! signature.) Copyrighted freeware. Version 3.0 dated 5-2-91
- used. Available on CIS and on BBSs, including Channel One, Boston
- (617-354-8873); may be listed on BBSs as "unsit" or as "unsit30", but check
- file dates to obtain a current version, as earlier versions may still be
- posted on some BBSs.
-
- "Extract" by Bill Goodman...a PC utility for unarchiving Macintosh
- "Compactor Pro"-archived files. The Macintosh filename of such an archive
- sometimes ends with a ".cpt" suffix. "Extract" is another invaluable tool
- for working with Macintosh files. Copyrighted freeware. Version 1.0 used.
- Available on CIS and on BBSs, including Channel One, Boston.
-
- "Wrefont 3.0" by Acute Systems...a PC/Windows utility for performing various
- font conversions, adjustments and repairs. This is a tool for a font
- mechanic, not a font artist. This full-feature version is $20 + $4 S/H;
- "Refont", a trial version with limited but still quite useful functionality,
- is available on CIS and BBSs, including Channel One, Boston. "Refont"
- contains ordering information for "Wrefont".
-
- Conversion performed by John Schaefer, P.O. Box 4123, Dedham, MA 02026.
- This font has been tested for apparent complete functionality in a stable and
- conventional PC/Windows 3.0/ATM 1.15/PageMaker 4.0 system which is heavily
- used for DTP work. No warranty is provided and no representations are made or
- implied with regard to suitability of this converted font for any purpose or
- function in any other system or use. The user is entirely responsible for
- ascertaining the suitability of this converted font for his or her intended
- use. It is strongly recommended that any software tool, commercial or
- shareware, including this converted font, should be tested before use for any
- important work. John Schaefer has no proprietary rights to the converted
- font, which is essentially unchanged from the original version and thus
- remains wholly subject to the original font artist's proprietary rights.
- Note, however, that the original font artist cannot be responsible for, and
- cannot provide support for, the font conversion as such.
-
- The following is a translated, unedited version of the font artist's
- textfile, which was part of the original Macintosh font file:
-
