Path: utzoo!attcan!uunet!decwrl!ucbvax!ANDREW.CMU.EDU!rr2b+ From: rr2b+@ANDREW.CMU.EDU (Robert Andrew Ryan) Newsgroups: comp.soft-sys.andrew Subject: X font aliases Message-ID: Date: 31 Jul 90 20:51:21 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 47 An fonts.alias which maps ATK's font names to the Adobe fonts distributed with R4 can be found in the Andrew distribution as andrew/xmkfontd/non-andrew.fonts.alias. A list of the fonts this alias file doesn't cover appears below: symbol10 symbol12 symbol16 symbol22 symbol8 symbola10 symbola12 symbola16 symbola22 symbola8 msgs10 msgs14 con10 con12 times120 The fdb files for symbol and symbola fonts can be found in andrew/overhead/fonts/fonts/adobe. msgs10 and msgs14 can be found in andrew/atkams/messages/cmd. You will also need to convert the fonts in andrew/overhead/fonts/fonts/programs. The following except from Bill Janssen's recent post shows the basic steps needed to convert an fdb font to bdf.
