Fast Font Menu 2.2J - Japanese Version (fast-font-menu-22-jp.hqx)

Download fast-font-menu-22-jp.hqx (55,365 KB)


From: chrisli@bridge1.com
Subject: Fast Font Menu 2.2J - Japanese Version


This is the Japanese version of the Fast Font Menu package.

FastFontMenu is a Control Panel which speeds up the building of the Font
Menu in most applications. It does this by sorting the font names in an
internal array, rather than insertion sorting them in the menu the way
older versions of the MacOS did . It also caches the list. This has two
benefits. The first is that it'll be MUCH faster for every font menu
after the first, as long as your fonts haven't changed (applications
that have fonts in their resource forks will clobber the caching, but
they've been warned not to do that by Apple's Developer Support for more
than seven years). The second benefit is that after the first time, the
memory requirements of FFM are much smaller. If you were seeing problems
in a control panel or desk accessory, you should no longer see them as
long as you've run an application that builds a font menu first.

Important: FastFontMenu requires the Collection Manager, which is
included with MacOS 8.5 or later.

FastFontMenu is WorldScript savvy, and should give you a font menu
that's sorted in the same order that you get without it installed. If
you find that this isn't the case, drop me a note, and I'll look into
it.

FastFontMenu 2.2 is fully compatible with Mac OS 9.

the ONLY font sampler program that gives you these features.

The 1.6 version enables ATM anti-aliasing in the browse window,
allows you to select fonts for print while you're in browse mode,
allows you to keep selected sets even when you cancel print jobs, and
sports a new look. Also fixes a duplex printing bug and a
longstanding problem with aliases.

From: poot@home.com
Subject: FontLister v1.0.4


You can use FontLister to create a SimpleText file which lists all of the Fonts currently installed in your system. Each font in the list will be displayed in its 'own' font. If you wish, you can then print out the list (using SimpleText) and use it as a referance. I find this quite useful since I've got well over 300 fonts install and it's pure hell trying to find just the right font sometimes.

FontLister is Freeware. This is definately a 'quick hack' of a program. Pretty much no testing has been done, but it should work as planned.

Font Smoothie 1.1 (font-smoothie-11.hqx)

Download font-smoothie-11.hqx (232,807 KB)


From: "Nick D'Amato"
Subject: Font Smoothie 1.1


Requirements
Mac OS 8.6 or higher. Any PowerPC Mac.

What's new in 1.1?
Some minor fixes and interface touch-ups.

What is Font Smoothie?
Font Smoothie is a small application that will allow you to achieve more
control over your fonts. This program is targeted towards system fonts,
their sizes, and their font smoothing minimum size.

The MacOS systems only allow a select range of fonts to be used as system
fonts. This is the overall font that you see in the titles of windows,
menus, dialogs, etc. There is also a restriction on size: the font can only
be 12 point.

Font Smoothie will allow you to change the system font to any font that is
available in your system. It also allows any size font. Some fonts look
better bigger, others smaller, depending on the situation and font design.

A relatively new enhancement of the MacOS is the ability to have the
on-screen fonts anti-aliased (smoothed). This is real neat, makes the fonts
look much better, and add1s a touch of class to the OS. A restriction exists
that only allows the font size to be 12 point or higher. Font Smoothie
allows fonts as low as 9 point to be smoothed. Therefore, all fonts that are
on-screen, true-type, and 9 point or higher can be smoothed!

supports the viewing and printing of font samples, export of

be one by living in the Startup Items folder (like Font R...);
thus it works on ALL Macs with System 7.1 or later, including
Mac OS 8.1 (and HFS+), without modifying the NORMAL startup
and operation of your computer. Thousands worldwide running
all kinds of Macs (and clones) have switched to Fonts Manager
to get 'Up & Running'.

From: greg@kaleidoscope.net
Subject: SmoothType 2.1.1


SmoothType 2.1.1 -- September 25, 1999
by Greg Landweber, coauthor of Kaleidoscope

The SmoothType control panel effectively increases the resolution of
text on the screen by blurring the edges of bitmap fonts with shades
of gray, a technique called "anti-aliasing". This is similar to the font
smoothing in Mac OS 8.5 and later, but SmoothType offers more flexibity
and uses a more aggressive anti-aliasing algorithm that many people
think gives better results. I suggest you try both to see which you
prefer. For best results with SmoothType, set your monitor resolution as
high as it will go, but then increase the font sizes (or magnification)
you use so that text on your screen is the same physical size as before.

SmoothType is compatible with all system versions from System 7 to
Mac OS 9. With 8.5 or later, it overrides the built-in font smoothing.

Version 2.1.1 fixes problems with blank windows in FWB Hard Disk Toolkit
and with smoothing the system font when using Kaleidoscope.

The shareware fee is $10 (registered users of 1.x can upgrade for $5;
registered users of version 2.x do not need to pay an upgrade fee).

The Show Must Go FOND allows one to preview uninstalled fonts. It was

others now. I released timed demos of this program several years ago,
but here is the full working version with no expiration date. (It
will expire when Apple makes its hardware or software incompatible
with it, which will eventually happen, if it has not already
happened.) I have not updated it for several years and I have no
plans to update it in the future. However, on occasion I get requests
for it, so it must still be useful to some people. The program is
FREE and "AS-IS," (which means do not complain to me if it crashes or
does not work right). There are some restrictions on redistribution
that are explained in the documentation.

Subject: TrueKeys v3.2 release



TrueKeys is a Chinese, Japanese, Korean (CJK) 2-byte truetype font conversion
utilities. What makes it different from other truetype utilities such as
TTConvert 1.5 and TrueConvert 0.3b is that it generates its own cmap table for
specified language encoding, and assemble the original font data into a new
truetype. This strategy corrects some common PC font problems such as no Mac cmap
table support, etc. When TTConvert or TrueConvert does not work for your font,
you should seriously try TrueKeys. TrueKeys v3.2 is guarenteed to work with any
Mac format CJK truetypes and Windows format truetypes (including TTC format).


Key Benefits

Convert Chinese/Japanese/Korean truetype fonts between
Windows/Macintosh format.
Add Apple Unicode encoding table to existing font to
support's Apple's Unicode imaging
technology.
Convert Chinese/Japanese/Korean truetype fonts between

TT FontConvert is small, relatively crude PostCard Ware utility to convert
any TrueType fonts installed on your Macintosh to the .ttf format used by
Windows and other platforms. The main window will display a list of all
the TrueType fonts installed on your Macintosh. Simply select a font from
the list and click the "ConvertŠ" button to save the font as a Windows .ttf
format font.

VisualFont, the font browser

VisualFont allows one to browse libraries of TrueType and bitmapped fonts
that can be easily viewed, printed, listed, duplicated or moved, and without
restriction of number or size. VisualFont uses very few memory, the
application is quite small, and it can still manage thousands of fonts. The
search engine is able to find all fonts contained in any folder and its
subfolders, sort them, remove duplicates, and caches the search results to
disk, so that you can stop the search process and resume it later. The
rendering engine displays and prints text using multiple lines, and has been
greatly improved to fit publishing and page layout professional needs.
VisualFont uses drag and drop intensively, it interacts with the Finder, and
uses the latest technologies provided with MacOS 8 and MacOS 9.

New version 2.6 offers a list view and has improved overall structure for
speed and strength. It has been crash-tested with folders of over 6000
fonts, ensuring its stability.

VisualFont requires PowerMacintosh, System 7 and Appearance Manager.
The shareware price is $20.
