---------------------------- History -----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 5.1 25-Mar-99
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Symmetry of the number 8 improved.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Curvature of tilde exagerated to prevent it from looking
|
||
|
|
like a straight line at low point sizes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 5.0 16-Feb-99
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Several character shapes have been changed to improve
|
||
|
|
distinctiveness and legibility.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* All character outlines have been made more precise
|
||
|
|
and uniform, resulting in better on-screen legibility
|
||
|
|
and consistency (i.e. improved "color").
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The hints for every character have been reviewed and
|
||
|
|
improved. Because the font does not use delta hints,
|
||
|
|
however, it's on-screen appearance is not quite as good
|
||
|
|
at low point sizes as fonts that do.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Direct support for bold, oblique, and bold oblique
|
||
|
|
family members has been dropped. The shapes calculated by
|
||
|
|
the rasterizer look better.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 4.0 11-Dec-97
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The on-screen appearance has been improved considerably.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Characters are slightly (about 2%) narrower, allowing
|
||
|
|
more characters per line.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* MS-DOS graphics characters have been added. As a result
|
||
|
|
the character keymap has changed somewhat. The keycodes
|
||
|
|
for the standard characters has not changed, but the
|
||
|
|
keycodes of special characters such as '(c)' (copyright)
|
||
|
|
have changed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 3.0 24-Jan-97
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Fixed a problem with the attributes of the oblique
|
||
|
|
family members.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 2.0 5-May-96
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The entire font family (regular, oblique, bold, and
|
||
|
|
bold oblique is supported.
|
||
|
|
* The weight of the font has been made considerably
|
||
|
|
more uniform.
|
||
|
|
* Character shapes have been tweaked for a better
|
||
|
|
screen appearance.
|
||
|
|
* Additional character positions have been filled to
|
||
|
|
prevent problems with desktop publishing applications.
