  I got a copy of the distribution and was impressed by the list of 
  fonts it contained, but unimpress with the documentation.

  First let me say that I can't even spell graphics, or fonts (meaning
  that I know next to nothing about them). But I am willing to learn.

  I was thrilled to get the kanji and kana fonts, but I have no idea
  how to use them. The two programs contained in the distribution were
  of no help ( I know C , but not GKS ).

  Can anyone enlighten me ? Specifically what the hersehey fonts are,
  what the format of the data is and so on.

  Thanks in advance,
  mark
