In other font news, I went hunting for that book by Karow jt mentioned a while back when Bézier came up in a thread. I din't find it, but I did pick up Font Technology, which he wrote and was released by URW. Interesting read, I wonder what happened to IKARUS... ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0
Da Penguin Senior Member USA 1094 Posts	Posted - 11 Oct 2002 : 06:53:08 Is that just top level fonts, or including all the little "regular, bold, etc" variations (there IS a real word for that, forget what)? Currently I'm running about 500, but that is just after slowly adding what I need since the clean install of jaguar. My personal G3 has about 600+. ~The Penguin \| Captain, Intelligence Operations / Space Cowboy \| There is only one path and that is the path that you take, but you can take more than one path. \| 68k.torpedobird.com <-- Official Hotline Server \|

alcoa Full Member Albania 543 Posts	Posted - 11 Oct 2002 : 08:59:19 Comic Sans MS? That's truetype! I thought we were talking about fonts . . . I could install a lot more, but I designated the shop an Helvetica Free Zone, so I'm operating at a disadvantage if this a competition.
cinemafia Guerrilla Recon Leader USA 2965 Posts	Posted - 11 Oct 2002 : 11:46:24 I like Skia, Verdana (in all caps), Bernhard Modern and Footlight m'self... As for how many I have, it's less than 200. OS 9 and below have some dorky limit... 666th poster and 666th thread-creator Mod of the Mac II series Forums Total 68K Macs liberated: 7 My Site: http://cine.sytes.net My Hotline Server: 840av.sytes.net
