TTF-GDOS is a GDOS replacement that uses true type fonts as well as gem fonts.

It is small, fast & efficient and can easily be used without a hard drive.

It also incorporates features roughly equivalent to font-GDOS:
- a caching system so you can use more fonts for a given
amount of memory,
- built in bezier functions

This release includes ttf2gem, a utility program that creates accurate gem fonts from a true type font (new for 2.3)

Using true type fonts gives you 3 big benefits:
- you can choose from a vast range of true type fonts
- true type fonts are scalable so you can have almost any size
font you want
- true type fonts need much less disk storage than typical gem
printer fonts, so even on a low spec machine you can use lots
of fonts.

Gem fonts and true type fonts complement each other perfectly - gem fonts are
small and fast, while true type fonts are device and resolution independent so are scalable to any point size at any resolution.

Features

  • free open sourced
  • font caching so more fonts can be used for the available memory
  • bezier curves
  • can be used on a floppy only system - no hard drive
  • true type fonts avoid the need for large printer font files
  • uses standard GDOS or font-GDOS drivers
