As you guessed, you can do it simply enough with the existing version of my fed
(font editor): copy the font file, you want to use as a starting base, under a
new name and load it into the fed. Then just expand the font range using
prepend/append buttons. You can also transfer patterns between fonts, one by
one, by storing/retrieving them from the buffer - the buffer is 'persistent' in
between font reloads. - A bit tedious, I know, but how many fonts are you going
to make? And don't forget to *save* your work *every* time before you exit -
there are no warnings in version 1.00.
Last night I finished the main part of the new version. If I find some time in
between tennis and bridge over the weekend, I'll have a go at the font editor,
and I'll send the lot to Rob on Monday. Jiri
