Font Resources


This item contains a superb outline font taken from the RISC User Fonts Disc 5, together with an application which enables you to display all the fonts in your machine and to print them out for future reference.

Running the item from the RISC User menu system opens an archive containing a directory called Blackford and an application entitled FontView. Blackford contains the Blackford.Medium font, and the entire directory should be dragged to one of the existing !Fonts directories on your hard disc. The full version of Blackford on the Fonts Disc 5 has medium, light and bold variants, each in normal and italic faces, as well as 9 other superb font families including Bookmania Swash which has an extended character set to provide fancy decorative lettering, and Numbers which provides numbers on circle or square backgrounds for distinctive numbering.

The FontView application enables you to see each of the fonts in your machine displayed using text strings of your own choice and with specified foreground and background colours.

A more detailed description together with instructions on using the program can be found in the !Help file inside the application.
