Combining PSF fonts</A></H2> <P>The program <CODE>setfont</CODE> will accept font descriptions like <BLOCKQUOTE><CODE> <PRE> # combine partial fonts none.00-17.16 ascii.20-7f.16 none.00-17.16 8859-1.a0-ff.16 </PRE> </CODE></BLOCKQUOTE> where the first line is precisely <CODE># combine partial fonts</CODE> and the remaining lines contain filenames for PSF fonts to load. The above example (it is the file <CODE>iso01.16</CODE>) describes a font with 256 positions, of which the first 32 are taken from the file <CODE>none.00-17.16</CODE>, the following 96 from <CODE>ascii.20-7f.16</CODE>, the following 32 from <CODE>none.00-17.16</CODE> again, and the final 96 from <CODE>8859-1.a0-ff.16</CODE>. In this way all ISO 8859-* fonts of a given pointsize (here 16) can share the same initial 160 positions. <P> <HR> <A HREF="font-formats-3.html">Next</A> <A HREF="font-formats-1.html">Previous</A> <A HREF="font-formats.html#toc2">Contents</A> </BODY> </HTML>
