Re: font question

["W. Egger" <w.egger@boede.nl>]

Hi Frans,

Don't dispare! - I know, that it cost a lot of time but you will see it is
worth to do it. With my small knowledg I got on this issue, I suggest, that
you will prepare a set of typescripts according e.g. to the Sabon example of
Bill. The font mechanism only works when those scripts are present! - If you
want I could send you some other example files which I have written for
fonts for different Corel type 1 fonts.

Sterkte Willi
