"VireoFont" is a modern stylized display face with strong descenders. This font is shareware. You, or the company for which you work, must register any shareware fonts you use as a moral duty, and in order to keep the supply of shareware fonts coming. See below for the font price and registration address. This Postscript Type 1 font was created for use on Macintosh systems, and was downloaded from a Macintosh/graphic-arts-oriented BBS and converted for use on IBM-PC-compatible computers running (1) Windows 3.x or a compatible graphical user interface, and (2) Adobe Type Manager or an equivalent font manager. Various steps in the conversion process may have involved some or all of the following PC utilities: "Unsit" by Brian Uechi...a PC utility for unarchiving Macintosh "StuffIt"-archived files. The Macintosh filename of such an archive sometimes ends with an ".sit" suffix. "Unsit" is an invaluable tool for working with Macintosh files. (Unfortunately, it will not handle the more-recent Deluxe StuffIt format, which can be identified by looking at the StuffIt file with an ASCII fileviewer; standard StuffIt files have a SIT!SIT! signature within the first few bytes, while Deluxe StuffIt files have a SITDSIT! signature.) Copyrighted freeware. Version 3.0 dated 5-2-91 used. Available on CIS and on BBSs, including Channel One, Boston (617-354-8873); may be listed on BBSs as "unsit" or as "unsit30", but check file dates to obtain a current version, as earlier versions may still be posted on some BBSs. "Extract" by Bill Goodman...a PC utility for unarchiving Macintosh "Compactor Pro"-archived files. The Macintosh filename of such an archive sometimes ends with a ".cpt" suffix. "Extract" is another invaluable tool for working with Macintosh files. Copyrighted freeware. Version 1.0 used. Available on CIS and on BBSs, including Channel One, Boston. "Wrefont 3.0" by Acute Systems...a PC/Windows utility for performing various font conversions, adjustments and repairs. This is a tool for a font mechanic, not a font artist. This full-feature version is $20 + $4 S/H; "Refont", a trial version with limited but still quite useful functionality, is available on CIS and BBSs, including Channel One, Boston. "Refont" contains ordering information for "Wrefont". Conversion performed by John Schaefer, P.O. Box 4123, Dedham, MA 02026. This font has been tested for apparent complete functionality in a stable and conventional PC/Windows 3.0/ATM 1.15/PageMaker 4.0 system which is heavily used for DTP work. No warranty is provided and no representations are made or implied with regard to suitability of this converted font for any purpose or function in any other system or use. The user is entirely responsible for ascertaining the suitability of this converted font for his or her intended use. It is strongly recommended that any software tool, commercial or shareware, including this converted font, should be tested before use for any important work. John Schaefer has no proprietary rights to the converted font, which is essentially unchanged from the copyrighted original version and thus remains wholly subject to the original font artist's copyright and conditions of availability. Note, however, that the original font artist cannot be responsible for, and cannot provide support for, the font conversion as such. The following is a translated, unedited version of the font artist's textfile, which was part of the original Macintosh font file: VireoFont January, 1991 VireoFont is a type 1, PostScript¨ font for the Macintosh¨. VireoFont is shareware. The payment requested is $10. Please send it to: Christopher Bird 116 Dean Street Apt. B Stamford, CT 06902. VireoFont is designed to be used with a PostScript¨ laser printer or Adobe Type Manager and an ImageWriterª printer. The bitmap characters are provided in 14, 18, 24 and 48 point sizes. Anything below 14 point tends to get difficult to read. Alternate caps are available by pressing the option and the shift keys along with the character you want. Small numerals are produced by pressing the option key with the number you want. Install VireoFont like any other font: drag the Outline font file (the little laser printer icon entitled VireoFon) into your system folder, and install the bitmap file (the little suitcase file entiled VireoFont.bmap) using the Font /DA mover program from Appleª, or a utility such as Suitcase IIª. Registration and Licensing Agreement VireoFont is shareware. Due to the fact that it's a somewhat funky typeface which may have limited use, the payment requested is $10. Please send it to Christopher Bird, 116 Dean Street Apt. B, Stamford, CT 06902. If you would like a copy of the original Fontographerª files for the font, please send an extra $5.
