Tweaked version of the ProFontWindows TrueType font |
|
|
|
http://66.167.72.10/ProFontWindows.zip
Modifications include:
- A Euro character
- Missing characters from the Latin 1 code page
- Full support for CodePage 850. These are mostly the famous block/box characters you know from DOS. Very useful if you use Mightnight Commander through PuTTY.
- Fixed metrics so that point size of 9 works correctly. Until now you had to select 7 to obtain the native point size of 9.
- Added some quick&dirty hinting for point size of 9. Most characters now match closely the look of the bitmap version. Don't expect it to look good on anything else than Windows...
Another bitmap font converted to TrueType:
http://66.167.72.10/Topaz-8.zip
This is/was the AmigaOS2.0+ system font. Select a point size of 7 to make it look nice. I like it since it is quite readable even on a low quality CRT screen. Only Latin 1 is supported.

Thanks a lot for enhancements, and thanks for telling us!
Can't wait to see your version next time I'll be working on a Windows computer... :-)
Regards,
Tobias

Thanks!
At last a Profont version that will look good (albeit only at one size - 9 - but that's fine) in XFT applications in Linux, most importantly gvim compiled with GTK2 support. Once again - thank you.

Would it be possbile for you to make a bolded version that has the same character width as the regular type? I like to use a combination of bolded and colour type in my syntax highlighting rules. However because there's no real bold type ProFont, Windows just accents the type and it breaks the monospaced behaviour.

we need a bold version please. Notepad++ wont bold fonts on its own, it requires a font to have a bold version or to somehow have bold embedded into it.
