Subject: [geda-user] Fonts for PCB Designer

I have converted some of the free Hershey fonts for use with PCB.

I started with Hershey Sans 1 stroke to provide a more contoured font.

In the process I wrote a small piece of C code psbFontTool.c to simplify
processing of pstoedit outputs and conversion into PCB Designer compatible
font symbols.

Having streamlined the process somewhat, I figured why not do some of
the other fonts, so, PCB users now have the choice of:

Hershey Sans 1 stroke
Hershey German Gothic
Hershey Italian Gothic
Hershey English Gothic
and the usual default_font

I have uploaded the fonts, the pcbFontTool utility, and instructions for
those
wishing to convert other fonts, to an ftp server

users.on.net/~esh/geda/pcb/src/fonts/

If someone with git credentials could commit them, that would be
appreciated.

If there are any users keen on having the Hershey cyrillic or greek glyphs
converted I can convert them too, or if users have a FOSS centerline
aka 1 stroke font they would like converted, I can give it a go.

Cheers,

Erich
