-- What should have been in the .ZIP file ---------------------------------- ¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹ READTHIS.1ST This file. SMOOTH_B.FNT "Smooth Bold" Warp 9 font. SMOOTH_L.FNT "Smooth Light" Warp 9 font. SMOOTH_M.FNT "Smooth Medium" Warp 9 font. -- What they are ----------------------------------------------------------- ¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹ These are three fonts you can use with Warp 9 in any 640x400 or higher resolution. I've seen lots of fonts for Warp 9 (it comes with a bunch of them), but most of them are seriously lacking in the readability department. These fonts are designed to be readable, with a bit more character than the system font. All three also provide international characters in a style consistent with the rest of the font, as well as replacement window gadgets (although the gadgets do NOT vary with the font weight--they are all bold). They are also, for the most part, the same size as the system font (only a few characters are not). While creating these fonts I used them each for a couple of days, so I could make sure they were usable and consistent. Three weights are included, as not everyone likes the same thickness in their text. Smooth Bold is very close to the system font in its weight, although slightly different; it offers high contrast, clearly readable text. Smooth Medium is the one I use, and uses thinner horizontal lines than Smooth Bold; this gives it less contrast, but more character, and makes it a little less dense. Smooth Light is very light; unless you like thin fonts, you probably won't want to use it, as it can become difficult to read when you're tired. None of these fonts can be used as an 8x8 font; they are all 8x16. -- Distribution ------------------------------------------------------------ ¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹ You may distribute these fonts as you like, but don't alter them, make sure you include this READTHIS.1ST file, and don't charge except to cover the costs of the media (such charges should not exceed $10). -- Where to reach me ------------------------------------------------------- ¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹¹ Snail Mail: Damien M.
