ok, got my first font for pd beta-ready ! (means, all characters should be there and in their place:)
the font has (for beta testing) as internal name "courier". installing in windows:
- close all programs that are using "courier" fonts
- delete all installed "courier" fonts (ttf+fon) (dont forget to backup them first!!!)
- copy the beta PD8x13BN.FON font file to ../windows/fonts
- ready. all progs that use "courier" font should now use the new font
size compared with win2k initial Courier fonts (number 1 is the MAIN courier font in win2k) : http://www.vju-tv.net/sizes.gif (NORM means that i deletet all "bold" entries in pd.tk)
...here you can see the alpha version in action : http://www.vju-tv.net/virgin.gif (notice the size of math symbols & numbers) (capitols converted to 1pix thick in beta version)
and ofcourse the font (only 8x13pix version, yet) : http://www.vju-tv.net/pd8x13bn.fon
and because its a bitmap font there should be no problems converting crossplatform...
any bugs, nags, comments, wishes... can be sent to huolong@vju.info (i've tested the font only with screen res1024x768)
-andre ps. please tell me what format you need, if FON doesnt work in your platform!
