Hi Guys
DEC did some interesting things when it came to fonts on
front panels.
Take an 8/e front panel for example. the address is kind of a chalet font.
But they built it out of circles and straight lines and that's what I do.
Then they bunch up the characters until they touch or nearly touch.
(kerning?)
I'd like to recover the DEC fonts and have looked at several font
creator/editors.
Frankly they are dung. Every fancy curve there is but not a straight
forward line and circle method of creating lower case characters
as DEC did it. I do need the ability to enter (or import) the lower
case characters using just circles and lines.
I then need to do the usual font type things like different font sizes,
bold, and character spacing from zero (touching) to miles apart.
Suggestions please
