Put the TTF fonts anywhere you want and in your user-startup make an assign to them. Something like this: ASSIGN Fonts: DH2:Fonts/TrueType/ ADD This will add the assignment for more fonts and keep your original Fonts: assignment as well. In fact I have 4 fonts: assigns in my startup. Just be sure to put the keyword ADD after each additional Fonts: assignment. > I remember there is a tooltype for where it looks for fonts. > > I dont' want to put the ttf fonts there either. > > So does anyone know how to do it?

You could just add an "Assign FONTS: ADD" and that means that you can install the ttf fonts to another partition and the Amiga 'font files will be added to the FONTS: path so you can use them on your Amiga. Where you keep the #?.TTF files can also be on another partition as it no use to just to copy them over to your FONTS: directory, as the Amiga won't use them just because they are placed there. ttf.library can be found on this web site. ttf.library - truetype for Amiga :- http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/ragriffi/ttflib.htm And do read the supplied documentary. -- Kimme Utsi, http://www.kimme.nu/ , 2-Apr-99 19:59:19 "And that's all I have to say about that." - Forrest Gump ---- to unsubscribe from fwml, send mail to "fwml_admin@thepentagon.com" with "unsubscribe finalwriter" in the message-body.

I have installed ttflib_0.7.8.lha from Aminet and am using the same TTF fonts with Workbench and FW97. I placed my TTF fonts in a drawer on my Work: and used the TTF install utility to install them to both Fonts: and my FW fonts drawer. It only installs the .font and .otag files in each location so it doesn't mack copies of the fonts themselves. From both WB and FW when selecting a font to use, I select an xxx.font file and it works well. Rge best part of using TTD in FW is that when I get an RTF file from a PC, I have the fonts required for the remaping. > Thanks... > Cya! I hope this helps.

Try downloading the file ttflib.lha from the util/libs directory. That program will let you place true type fonts anywhere on your harddrive and use them in finalwriter and other programs. You might want to try type1beta9.lha too. It lets you use type1 fonts the same way.

It lets you use type1 fonts the same way. For use PSType1-Fonts with FW, don't use type1.library, because FW can handle Type1-Fonts native.

When using postscript output (printing into a ps file) for use with TurboPrint7/Ghostscript or for copying to a ps printer I notice an image on the printed page which I "never" inserted. This means: On the screen I neither see this image nor can I activate it with the graphics cursor. And when printing via normal non-ps output the page shows correct without the image. But with ps output the image appears... This is not happening on all docs, some of my templates are showing this strange output.

Of course, after installing type1.library, usage of Type1-Fonts in FW is without problems possible! -> With the builtin capability FW to use Type1-Fonts. Here the type1.library is superfluously. But for other programs, type1.library is a good (and systemfriendly) way to use Type1-Fonts!! (it works fine in my amigaOS) If I use a Type1-Font in FW, appropriated by type1.library (the xxx.font and xxx.otag files), many problems occur. The biggest: - WYSIWYG is not WYSIWYG, the textposition on screen was not the textposition on printing paper - an editing of the text was impossible, because then parts of the text was "absorbing". This are my experience. May be, You can say others things about usage FW and type1.library-based Type1-Fonts?

You must'nt take the fonts to fonts: directly. With T1Manager or TTFManager (ttf.library) you can take any dir containing TrueTypeFonts. Only the .font and .otag files were saved to Fonts:.

I don't think the author means to change the margins in the script, but rather in FinalWriter. You have to stay within the printable margins of your printer. In my case HP660C the printable margins are, for US letter, L+R .25 (that is inches) bottom .59 and top 0.04. In landscape it be changed automatically. All I have to do, after the calendar renders, change the page margins, so I can enter data in the day fields. Printing is no problem here. Hope this helps.

The thing you need to watch out for is that RTF only keeps a limited amount of formatting in its transferability. Fonts and tabs may become altered. Once you get it into Word, you may have to reformat it again in order to meet the requirements of the thesis.

Woody sounds bitter. However, he may want to consider the turmoil after the demise of Commodore. It was not until some time after Gateway took over the situation started to look positive. By that time Softwood had thrown in the towel. As far as SoftPage is concern, I think they were under-financed from the beginning. After their preproduction sales did not pen out, it seams they are dead in the water. Conclusion, enjoy what you have with FWriter, FData or FCalc. What you see is what you get.

I was unaware that SoftPartners were planning on furthing support of FW! My impression was that they were just going to offer the CD with the "Final" programs on it -- Final Writer, Final Data and Final Calc. I have upgraded each and every version of this fine word processor since its incarnation as FinalCopy! I would certainly buy further upgrades to FW97.
