Short: Best sans serif fonts, in .pfb format Architecture: generic This is a collection of fonts in Adobe Postscript (.pfb) format. The Adobe font format is superior to the Compugraphic Intellifont format, and of this collection, not all fonts exist as Compugraphic equivalents. So, if possible, use the Adobe version. Programs like PageStream, FinalWriter and TypeSmith directly understand Adobe fonts (load the .pfb files), and using util/libs/type1beta9.lha (found on Aminet Set 2 Disk b) you can use Postscript fonts in any program that understands Amiga fonts, because they are converted on the fly. All fonts in this collection have hints. These are instructions how to make the fonts look good at low resolutions. However not all programs make use of them. In the archive pix/illu/AminetPFonts.lha you find a set of images displaying all fonts of the whole font collection. Also, each archives contains an archive index image and an image for each font. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 8126 4453 45.2% 18-Jan-96 08:14:40 0BSans2_Index.IFF 10304 3119 69.7% 14-Jan-96 08:08:50 Zipper.afm 1540 756 50.9% 15-Jan-96 18:39:30 Zipper.iff 37738 33961 10.0% 12-Jan-96 16:56:22 Zipper.pfb 10381 3575 65.5% 14-Jan-96 08:08:58 ZorroBold.afm 2824 1569 44.4% 15-Jan-96 18:39:34 ZorroBold.iff 49159 45444 7.5% 12-Jan-96 16:56:56 ZorroBold.pfb 10403 3599 65.4% 14-Jan-96 08:09:04 ZorroITAL.afm 2240 1387 38.0% 15-Jan-96 18:39:38 ZorroITAL.iff 48470 44761 7.6% 12-Jan-96 16:58:14 ZorroITAL.pfb 10290 3539 65.6% 14-Jan-96 08:09:10 ZorroTHIN.afm 2082 1240 40.4% 15-Jan-96 18:39:42 ZorroTHIN.iff 48220 44518 7.6% 12-Jan-96 16:59:22 ZorroTHIN.pfb -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 241777 191921 20.6% 04-Nov-95 17:08:06 13 files
