Just got the CompuGraphic fonts from Gold Disk. Neat deal, you can make any Amiga type font you need, or you can have them translated to PostScript. Alas, the PostScript fonts don't work in PixelScript. The resulting files give every letter, but the space character is a solid black block. Here's a workaround till somebody (most likely PixelScript) upgrades. 1) create the PostScript font using the CreateFont program. 2) Fire up your very best editor on the resultant XXX.psfont file. 3) Search for the string "c8". You should be on a line of hexidecimal numbers following something about character definitions. The first def is for the space character, and says so. 4) Add "c8" to the end of the line. (Don't type the quote characters….) 5) Save the file out & enjoy. If anybody hears anything about this, I'd like to hear about it. Later, Dave
