INTRODUCTION
------------
REFONT is a Postscript type 1 font utility that allows you to use MAC type 1
fonts on IBMPC machines with Windows and ATM. With REFONT you can:
1) Convert MAC format type 1 outlines to IBM format type 1 outlines.
2) Convert MAC format type 1 outlines to ASCII hex format type 1 outlines.
3) Convert Postscript AFM files to Windows compatible PFM files.

USING REFONT
------------
Start REFONT by typeing REFONT at the prompt. REFONT prompts you for an
AFM file, then for a font outline file. If you don't want to generate one
of these, just hit return.
For ATM:
Name the output of the AFM file "font.PFM" and name the output of the
outline file "font.PFB", where "font" is any convenient name. Pick the
"B" option for the font outline. Now these files can be installed with
ATM.
For an ascii font:
Skip the first prompt and pick the "A" option for the font outline.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
