TG font collaboration #2 Roundhead

Thanks Gary. Do you want the old upper and lower case files that have not been updated to comply with the template or just the files that Michele and Larry have updated?

[Gare]

How about both?

I got this new 500MB hard drive with lots of room!

SCSI and everything...

My times have changed a lot over the years. My first PC compatable only had a 10MB hard drive and had to be partitioned in to two 5MB sections.

I sent a zip file to your personal email.

You win. The first PC I sat down at was a friend's father's, a physician, who bought a 40MB, which I think cost more than $500, just so he didn't have to load a floppy to play Zork.

And Zork still runs on my machine as long as I have a DOS emulation software loaded.

My first XT had a 10 meg drive. I was in heaven when I upgraded to the then largest drive I could get, a 20 meg drive. When I upgraded the MB to an AT, it was nirvana. Drives were expensive, but RAM was about $125 or so a meg iirc. Geez, that was a while ago.

Getting back on topic, if there is anything else you need Gary just give us a shout! Thank you for doing this .

[Gare]

I think I'm good, thanks, Frances.

I spent my free time today importing the original Xara glyphs, and thanks to Bill, the sizes were consistent.

I'm currently practicing "eyeballing" for consistency and if anything seems off, I go into the glyph in FontLab, not Xara, and make corrections. I have some global guides set up, Bill, in FL, and I'll have the caps lookin' good tomorrow. This will take a few days, but when I'm done, I feel—having designed and sold and given away about two dozen fonts—that this guy will be good to go in due time.

Notes to all: the verticals aren't consistent, not always and when you draw a straight line, use guides because some of the verticals were at .5 degrees or so.

My Best,

Gary
