About LauraMcCrary ProFont...

LauraMcCrary is a narrow-ish semi-bold sans-serif font with a little of the 
old Florida Art Deco style.  (sort of a ÒHelvetica went to MiamiÓ style)   
Even though it is somewhat Art Deco, it is very stable, readable, and can 
be used in both text and display typface purposes.

LauraMcCrary is the second in a series of typefaces dedicated to our unborn 
child.  We don't know if it will be a he or a she, so LauraMcCrary is named 
after our choice of a girl's name.

STUFF ABOUT FONTS

How to install LauraMcCrary ProFont

*********TrueType version:

6.0.7 or 6.0.8 users can install LauraMcCrary using Font/DA mover 3.8 or 
later, and copy all of the files enclosed in the bitmap suitcase to your 
system file (or your Suitcase IIª font file).  Be sure you have the 
TrueTypeª init in your system folder at startup.

7.0 and 7.0.1 users can install LauraMcCrary by dragging the font suitcase 
to the icon of your system folder.  The system will install it into the 
system file for you.  If you are using Suitcase IIª, just drag the suitcase 
onto your current SuitCase II suitcase font file.

7.1 users!  Even though system 7.1 operates (in respect to fonts) 
differently, you can still install TrueType fonts by dragging them to the 
System folder icon.  Instead of placing them in the system file, system 7.1 
will place them in a folder called ÒFontsÓ.  Thanks for making it easy, 
Apple Computer!

Note:  Some applications require you to restart before they will recognize 
your new font.


*********Type 1ª version:

To use LauraMcCrary with ATMª, you must install  the bitmap file and the 
outline file (in this case, it is named "LauraMcCra") must be in the system 
folder before ATM will work with it.

6.0.x users can install LauraMcCrary using Font/DA mover 3.8 or later, and 
copy all of the files enclosed in the bitmap suitcase to your system file 
(or your Suitcase IIª font file).  Be sure to install the LauraMcCra file 
into your system folder.  The outline file will work with ATMª and/or a 
PostScriptª laser printer.

7.0 and 7.0.1 users can install LauraMcCrary by dragging the font suitcase 
to the icon of your system folder.  The system will install it for you.  If 
you are using Suitcase IIª, just drag the suitcase onto your current 
suitcase font file.  Be sure to drag the LauraMcCra file onto your system 
folder.  (The outline file will work with ATMª and/or a PostScriptª laser 
printer.)  If you are using ATMª version 2.0.2 or later, the LauraMcCra 
file should be in your extensions folder.  If you are using ATMª 2.0 or 
older, the LauraMcCra file should be in the first level of your system 
folder, but not in your extensions folder.

7.1 users!  Now it's easier than ever!  At the time of this note, ATM 
2.0-3.0 work the same way. (I don't know if Adobe Systems will change the 
way things work.)  Since the system folder now contains a fonts folder, 
your bitmap suitcases will be placed in this folder.  HOWEVER, your 
LauraMcCra (or other outline files) will be placed in the extensions 
folder.  Even though having lots of typefaces makes for a crowded 
extensions folder, ATM still works wonderfully well with 7.1.

Note:  Some applications require you to restart before they will recognize 
your new font.


WHY ARE TYPE 1 FONTS IN TWO FILES?

The bitmap (or suitcase) file has been traditionally called the screen 
font.  It is responsible for doing all sorts of systemic things, but most 
importantly, your Mac uses this part of the font to display your new 
typeface at smaller type sizes.  The other file, called an outline font (or 
outline file) is designed to give ATM and/or your printer special 
information about drawing your new typeface in OUTLINES (thereby the name 
Outline), as opposed to drawing the letters in big, square chunks at large 
typesizes.  ATM takes this outline file and draws outlines to your screen 
to make it look almost as nice as your printer will print it (sort of a 
WYSIWYG Òwhat-you-see-is-what-you-getÓ).

If you want your Type 1 font to print smoothly, it must be placed in the 
proper place (as described above).
