From article <390@iconsys.UUCP>, by danny@iconsys.UUCP (Danny Young):
" 
" I see your point.  The reason I ask is because I obtained a kanji font
" (kanji are the Chinese characters used in written Japanese) in BDF from the
" recent X-windows release which I would like to use.

I put an extended version of a program `lwf' in comp.sources.misc last
October which prints kanji using the X 14x14 kanji font.  Naturally,
14x14 there are some jaggies.  I do not use the BDF form of the font,
however, but rather the compressed .snf form.  The X distribution
contains a program to convert from .bdf files to .snf files.

I'll see if I can get mail to you to send a copy.  Is that
really a good address?  No `@'?  No `danny' -- just `icon'?
