Common questions about fonts
Here are some questions that often come up about fonts.
What kind of fonts should I buy?
Using a font that has both bitmapped and TrueType versions works best. The
bitmapped version looks great on the screen and the TrueType fonts print
beautifully on the Color StyleWriter 2500.
Avoid bitmapped fonts that don’t have TrueType versions because they print
with jagged edges on the Color StyleWriter 2500. By contrast, TrueType fonts
work well, even if you don’t have a bitmapped version.
If you have a PostScript printer or Adobe Type Manager, PostScript fonts
look great on paper. The Color StyleWriter 2500 is not a PostScript printer.
People who need professional typographic features such as swash characters
and proportional space numerals might also consider using QuickDraw GX
and QuickDraw GX TrueType fonts.
Why don’t all of my fonts appear in the Fonts menu?
You may not have all of your fonts placed correctly. All the fonts should be
installed in the Fonts folder in the System Folder.
Additionally, some application programs let the user decide which fonts
should appear in the Fonts menu. Check the manuals that came with your
programs.
Why can’t I see my Monaco 9, Geneva 9 and 12, and Chicago 12 bitmapped fonts?
These fonts are used by your Macintosh to display information. Because the
Macintosh needs these fonts, the Finder makes them invisible to prevent users
from removing them.
