All of the below fonts, as well as the original Commodore-supplied fonts
(yes, including the original Topaz "topaz", as well as OS 2.x's Topaz
"topaz2" are available in one
nifty download.
Instructions are also online to guide you through
the process.
All fonts are provided in their original pixel-for-pixel representations,
as well as a more aspect-ratio correct representation, where all of the
pixels have been doubled vertically. (use "xlsfonts | grep Commodore" to
see them, then look for fonts with names like "topaz_dbl".) Fonts
are also provided doubled with scanlines, as well as all three with
an extra row of pixels to make them more readable.
These fonts were generated using an experimental AmigaFont-to-BDF converter
that I have written, and therefore, might not be 100% accurate.
KNOWN ISSUES:
-
They don't seem to be showing up with 'xfontsel', although they do with 'xlsfonts' fixed with 0003, THANKS, BOB!

Amiga Bitmapped Font How-To |
|
|
Installing
To install the Amiga fonts above, simply copy the [FONTNAME].font file as
well as the [FONTNAME]/ directory for the font over to your FONTS: drawer.
If you're using an emulator, simply download and mount the
fontdisk.adf file, then using your
favorite file copy tool (DOpus, DiskMaster, CLI) copy the files from the
FontDisk/fonts folder to your system FONTS: folder.
Creating
The tutorial on creating Amiga bitmapped fonts is
now online!

True Type Fonts |

tron.zip(9kb)
So far, the only True Type Font that I've worked on that has gotten
released at all was the "Tron" font, which I worked on with Paul Albers
back around 1995 or so. I worked on it in Macromedia Fontographer. He
had most of the font done, and I just added in a few numbers, a few
letters and tweaked some others. I only really had minor involvement
with it. It has since been used on the Tron
20th Anniversary Collector's Edition DVD, which is pretty darn
cool.
