Short: Catalogs 108 fonts/page V1.2 - uses FW Author: AndyHaas@wcnet.org (Andrew Haas) Uploader: AndyHaas wcnet org (Andrew Haas) Type: biz/swood Version: 1.2 (03-Sep-98) Architecture: m68k-amigaos Introduction: Fontaloger is a Final Writer ARexx macro which will print all fonts in a specified path. The font name will be printed using a common font and a test string will be printed using the actual font. Since Fontaloger prints each page as is it created, clears the document, and starts the next page on an empty document, there is no limit to the number of fonts, or pages of fonts which can be cataloged. In contrast, accumulation (as a single Final Writer document) of a large font catalog could exceed the available memory of an 8 MB Amiga. A catalog page can contain one, two, or three columns of font samples, allowing 15, 56, and 108 samples per page respectively. You can choose from these based on your preferences and available memory. Fontaloger has two sorting modes and two page format options and allows the user to save each page as a Final Writer document or create a sorted ASCII fonts listing.
