Message-ID: <1990Dec5.221024.6267@bellcore.bellcore.com> Date: 5 Dec 90 22:10:24 GMT Sender: usenet@bellcore.bellcore.com (Poster of News) Reply-To: lawf@garage.bae.bellcore.com (Lawrence Fan(BAE)) Organization: Bell Communications Research Lines: 15 -- Hi, can someone please tell me how to tell whether a font file contains a laser font or a bitmap font? Just by looking at the name of the font isn't a good way. Also, once I have installed a laser font into the system, is there anything extra I need to do to use it (like download the font to the laserwriter manually) other than select it in an application and print? Thanks for the help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lawrence Fan Bell Communications Research lawf@cellar.bae.bellcore.com Phone: (201)-699-5026 rutgers!bellcore!cellar!lawf Room 1C-206 444 Hoes Lane, Piscataway, NJ 08854
