Microcom Corporation TrueType Font Converter for MS-DOS
Revision 1.16 - April 27, 1998
Copyright 1998 Microcom Corporation

The file TTF2MIC16.ZIP contains the files required to create Model
466 or Model 412 downloadable font files or resident font source
files. Model 412 downloadable files may be either in ASCII format
or compressed binary format. There is currently a limitation in the
printer firmware that does not allow a font to use more than 64KB of
printer memory. Please make sure that font converter program reports
that each converted font will consume less than 64KB of printer
memory. Microcom Corporation does not currently recommend the use
of compressed binary fonts. Please use the ASCII conversion process
at this time.

The ZIP file contains the following files:

TTF2MIC16.EXE - the executable program
UTT.SS        - the character symbol map data file
TT_PLUG.TTF   - the "plugin" file, for character glyphs that may
                not be in a given TrueType font file.

To use the converter, unzip the ZIP file in a working directory.
All files must be in the same directory. Run TTF2MIC16 and answer
the prompts. (Running the program with a command line argument of
'D' enables a debug output, in which generated character bitmaps
and metric data are dumped to the screen.) Every prompt has a
default that may be selected by simply pressing 'Enter'.

Note that the default character range (set of characters for which
images are generated) is different for Model 466 versus Model 412
files. The default range for Model 466 is 10 Hex through FF Hex, 
which includes special characters to support the Polish
language. The default character range for Model 412 is 20 Hex
through FF Hex. In either case, a 'zero' symbol is placed at
character location 9F Hex. This character must be hand-edited to
add a slash if a slashed zero symbol is required.
