Short: TypeSmith v1.01 patches Author: Provided by Soft-Logik Publishing Inc. Uploader: soft-logik cup portal com Type: text/font Version: 1.01 Architecture: m68k-amigaos 20-JULY-93 Welcome to TypeSmith 1.01 ------------------------- The 1.0 to 1.01 upgrade is a maintenance upgrade. Some of the problems that have been addressed in the new version are: - Type 1 fonts are now saved in a format that is compatible with the Post PostScript interpreter. - DR2D imports can now be individually positioned and scaled with a picture frame pointer (like `paste'). - Some problems with ARexx commands have been resolved. - TypeSmith DMF fonts no longer have `fill leaks' when used in PageStream 2. - The AutoMetric requester has been slightly re-designed. - Intellifont files are now scaled to match AGFA's recommended size. - New project tool type for Soft-Logik fonts: FIXEDPITCH=yes|no Necessary since DMF does not support a fixedpitch flag. - `Delete' in overview panel now deletes compositions as well. - Miscellaneous minor bug fixes. How to install: -------------- 1. Uncompress the TS101.run archive in RAM: or on your harddrive. It is recommended that you move the update files (lpatch, Install_TS_Update, Install_TS_Update.info, TypeSmith_1.01.pch) to RAM: or a harddrive before double-clicking on Install_TS_Update. 2. Put your original TypeSmith 1.0 program disk in df0:. To install the update you need a working-copy of your *unchanged* TypeSmith 1.0 original disk. The patch cannot be applied to personalized, powerpacked or otherwise changed copies of TypeSmith. ENSURE you write-protect this disk to avoid damaging it. This disk *must* be placed in the df0: drive. FLOPPY DISK USERS: You must place your original write-protected TypeSmith disk in df0:, and your working-copy of the disk in another floppy drive. DO NOT try to patch the file on your working floppy, you will not have a enough disk space to complete the patch. Copy the Unchanged TypeSmith 1.0 program file to RAM: first. Then apply the patch to the one in RAM:. When the patch is finished, copy the NEW TypeSmith to your working disk. 3. Double click on the Install_TS_Update icon and follow the instructions. The installer will patch your TypeSmith 1.0 program to version 1.01. What the patch installer does: ----------------------------- The installer script loads the Installer program from the disk in df0:. It asks you to select the directory in which your working copy of TypeSmith 1.0 is stored. (This is where TypeSmith 1.01 will be saved upon completion.) Then it runs the patch program to convert the TypeSmith 1.0 program in df0: to create TypeSmith 1.01 in RAM:. Finally, TypeSmith 1.01 is copied to your working directory.
